Executive summary
The situation of young children in the region of Mwanza is still very difficult. Specially young
children are suffering because
ause of big poverty and its effects. The high prevalence of Human
Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immune
Immune-Deficiency
Deficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS) also creates significant
hardships for young children. Orphans, children living in households headed by other children or o
elderly adults, disabled children, and street children are considered especially vulnerable. The
targets of the MDG are not reached in Mwanza in the areas of malnutrition, maternal mortality,
neonatal mortality, malnutrition and also in security and prot
protection
ection as well as the education status.
So are still 63% of the children age 66-59 month in the Mwanza region having anemia, the under-five
mortality rate is 81 per 1,000 births which is getting closer to th
the MDG goal of 64 but in the Mwanza
region only 46% live births occurred at health facilities. Only 42.4% of school going age children
access pre primary education and the quality of services provided very low is compromised by the
low number of qualified teacher tto pupil/class ratio for example it is currently 1:: 93 (THDR 2014).
TECDEN Mwanza Chapter with its 80 members is one e of the player who looks for solutions and
helps its members to strengthen ttheir capacity in delivering excellent service to young children. The
assessmentt of the network itself sh
showed
owed that the TECDEN Members share information with each
other but theydon’t
don’t work on joint projects. 70% of the members got information about early
childhood
ildhood topics in the last 12 month and 60% received capacity building on ECD topics. 56% of the
members wantant to learn more about leadership & management and strategic planning as well. 13%
of the members run an ECD center and 14% are interested or plan to build one.
The strategic plan of TECDEN Mwanza chapter 2014 2014-2018 focus four strategic goals. 1. Improved
IECD programs in Mwanza chapter, through use of information, research findings and critical
learning. 2. Enhance members’ capacity to effectively, plan, implement, monitor and evaluate
holistic ECD program in Mwanza Region through capacity building activ
activities
ities within the network. 3.
Enhance members’ capacity to effectively, plan, implement, monitor and evaluate holistic ECD
program in Mwanza Region through capacity building activities within the network. 4. Through
awareness raising and campaigning with an and
d within the network, there are improved attitudes and
practices toward
ard early childhood development. In total 26 diff
different
erent activities are planned with the
TECDEN members and also other stakeholders as government, private partners and media. A
monitoring and d evaluation plan helps to measure progress and to correct the activities so that the
goals can be reached.

1 INTRODUCTION
Tanzania Early Childhood Development Network (TECDEN) is a national umbrella of Early
Childhood Development Organizations working in TECDEN to influence policies, programs
program
and practice related to Early Childhood Development ((ECD) ECD) by sharing information,
experiences and through these processes to generate knowledge and understanding on
ECD. TECDEN was found in December 2000. It was formally registered on 30th June 2004 by
the Registrar of Societies, Ministr
Ministry of Home Affairs under the Societies ordinance, 1954.
The main goal of the network is to create an enabling environment for strengthening the
capacity of members to strategically engage in key policy and program development
d
processes at all levels to influence the improvemen
improvementt of support for holistic development of
all infants and young
ng children. TECDEN is recognise
recognisedd by the government of Tanzania as the
formal representativee of Civil Society Organisation (CSOs) in government high level
meetings.
TECDENN reached big success co w working
orking with different international partners and the
government to create the first biennale national Forum Early Childhood Development (ECD)
declaration signed at February 2012.
TECDENN currently has members in eight
eighteen Regional
nal Chapters which are located in
eighteen
een Government Administrative Regions in Tanzania mainland and Zanzibar.
Zanzibar
Since the early beginning of TECDEN the Mwanza Chapter has started as well and supports
sup
today 82 members in its region.
2 SITUATION ANALYSIS - CONTEXT – THE BIG PICTURE

To get the big picture first the ECD situation in Tanzania and specific the Mwanza Region
will be analyzed. This gives us a picture of the environmental situation of the network. With
the stakeholder mapping we finalize the environmental analysis. In a second step st we will
have an insight view into the TECDEN Mwanza network and learn how our members are
working and also learning together within the network. Also we will show the results of the
assessment of the capacity assessment of our members.
2.1 THE NATIONAL AND THE MWANZA REGIONAL ECD CONTEXT AND ENVIRONMENT
ENVIRONM
Tanzania with an estimated population of about 7.6 million young children aged between 0-6 0 years
is still struggling to address major challenges facing young children among them being;
being poor quality
ECD services (SABER 2012). The challenges range from conception, birth and growth of the child up
to the age of 13 years and all related to the child and mother’s health, nutrition, safety (before and
after birth), protection from diseases (immunization), healthy environment, proper upbringing,
recreation/playing facilities etc. (Child Development Policy, 2008).

2014-2018
_________________________________________________________________________________________
In a response to these challenges, the government has put in place various policy frameworks which
guide different service providers (government, CSOs, private sector,, individuals)
individuals to implement
strategies and plans in addressing the
these problems. Among the requirements of having an enabling
environment for ECD are the macroeconomic frameworks that address underlying economic, social
services and governance issues.
sues. The Tanzania Demographic
graphic Health Survey (TDHS 2014),
2014 provides an
overview of the status and reality of life and development of young children as the Country Report
on the Millennium Development Goals 2014 as well.
2.1.1 T HE NUTRITIONAL STATUS OF YOUNG C HILDREN

The nutritional status of young children in Tanzania is improving but the trend is not yet impressive:
At the national level, 42% of children under 5 are stunted, 5% are wasted, and 16% have low
weight-for-age,
age, which reflects both chronic and acute ununder-nutrition.
nutrition. These results reflect a mix in
progress in nutritional status from the 2004
2004-05
05 TDHS when these indicators were measured at 38%,
3%, and 22%, respectively (TDHS 2014
2014). Children in rural areas suffer substantially higher rates of
malnutrition than urban children. At this pace, halving stunting rates to 22.3% which is the MDG
target by 2015 for the mainland seems unrealistic (Tanzania MDG report, 2011).
Mwanza regional Context

Child malnutrition is the result of three main clusters of factors: food, health and care. At an
aggregate geographic level, food production is high in several of the regions with high rates of child
malnutrition, and rates of malnutrition are low in many of the regions which are commonly
associated with low food productio
production, experiencing periodic drought conditions.
Mwanza Region ranks at 18 in terms of food poverty which leads at the under-five
five mortality rate of
139 and ranks number 7 at national level. As a result, the region ranks number 4 in terms of
stunting level1equal
al to 39% compared to other regions
regions. The region has 63% of children
c age 6-59
months with anemia.
2.1.2 THE HEALTH STATUS OF YOUNG C HILDREN

Maternal mortality
ortality has declined from 578 to 478 per 100,000 births.. This figure is however still far
from the 133 deaths per 100,000 which is the MDG target by 2015. Neonatal mortality rate has also
declined to 26 per 1000 live birth
births,, compared to 29 in 2007/08. Infant mortality rate has declined by
42 %, from 88 to 51 deaths per 1,000 live births and moving closer to the MD MDGG target of 38 by year
2015. The under-five
five mortality rate has also declined from 137 per 1,000 to 81 per 1,000 births
which is getting closer to the
he MDG goal of 64 by year 2015. HIV/AIDS epidemic has an enormous
impact to the life of young children, where an estimated 1.4 million people are already infected
with HIV, and each year an estimated 100,000 are newly infected (THDR 2014). 2014) This data is
alarming, and calls for a multi sector collaboration in trying to collectively address these challenges
from all angles.

Mwanza regional Context

Measles, cholera and occasionally Cerebral Spinal Meningitis remain the most common disease
outbreaks in Tanzania. The cumulative reported cholera cases and deaths in Mwanza between 2002
-2010 were 382 and 26 respectively w with a 6.8% of case fatality rate (which was above the national
rate of 3.0%). In terms of delivering at health facilities, statisti
statistics
cs indicate that it is only 46%
46 of live
births which occurred at health facilities in the region and 44.1% gave birth with by skilled provider
(THDR 20154). 39% of the women who gave birth had aan ante natal visit with a skilled provider
(THDR 20154). With regard to HIV/AIDS, Tanzania is still grappling with inequity in care and
treatment services for women living with HIV and th their children.
Tetanus toxoid injections (TT+) are given during pregnancy to prevent neonatal tetanus, an
important cause of infant deaths. The injections are an important part of antenatal care. Because of
this, the MoHSW advocates for all women of reprodu
reproductive
ctive age are vaccinated before they become
pregnant. Tetanus is still a relatively common cause of death among newborns in Tanzania;
indicating a need for more efforts devoted to increasing vaccination coverage and safer delivery
practices. In comparison to the rest of Tanzania’s regions, the average TT+ vaccination was below
85%, with Mwanza region below 50% .
2.1.3 THE E DUCATION STATUS OF YOUNG CHILDREN

One of the main challenges in learning is inadequate pre primary and primary schools to cater for
the increased
eased number of children eligible for enrollment in pre and primary schools. This has a
direct impact on the learning levels among children. In the MDG Report 2014 from Tanzania the net
enrollment ratio of primary education felt from 95.4% (2010) to 89.7% (2013). Even in places where
there are schools,, the infrastructure is not enough to meet the requirement. Data indicates
indicate that
only 42.4% of school going age children access pre pri primary
mary education thus leaving 62% without
completing schools (BEST 2011). In addition, even for those accessing pre-primary
primary education, the
quality of services provided is compromised by the low number of qualified teacher to pupil/class
ratio for example it is currently 1: 49 against the recommended 1:25 (BEST 2011). In Tanzania 48%
of standard 3 pupils passed tests of literacy and numeracy. 55% of non poor children passed the
test while only 39% of ultra poor children passed (third EAST AFRICA Uwezo REPORT, 2014). There is
a big other challenge include unfriendly environments for children ildren with disabilities whose
who
enrollment in pree primary school is as low as 0.6% of all disabled children (BEST 2011),
2011) inadequate
teaching/learning tools, and inadequate teachers with formal training.. There is evidence, that the
Education for ALL (EFA) targets
rgets set during the World Education Forum in 2000 in Dakar have not
been met in Tanzania. In Tanzania thousands of children are passing through the primary education
system without mastering even the most basic skills (third EAST AFRICA Uwezo REPORT, 2014).
2014 The
TDHS 2014 says, with the actually quality of education Tanzania will produce a lot of youth with
poor education and for this poor working force for the next future.

Mwanza regional Context data

Mwanza region is hardest hit, with an average 93 pupils
ls per classroom. In some classrooms there can

be as many as 200 children, particularly at the lower primary school grade levels (BEST 2011).
pupil qualified teacher ratio is in Mwanza 1:53 (TDHS 2014). The pass rate of a combined test of
numeracy and literacy in Mwanza showed for Ilemela 68%, Kwimba 59%, Magu 53%, Ukerewe 43%,
Sengerema 41%, Geita 40%, Missungwi 30% while in Tanzania the highest pass rate is 87% and the
lowest 23% (third EAST AFRICA Uwezo REPORT, 2014). The results of the study shows, that children
from poorer households consistently show lower learning levels. According to the Buhongwa
baseline Study (SITUATION
SITUATION OF YOUNG CHILDREN (0 (0-8YRS)
8YRS) AND THEIR HOUSEHOLDS A BASELINE
SURVEY REPORT BUHONGWA WARD - NYAMAGANA DISTRICT MWANZA REGIO,, 2014), 2014 19.8 percent
children are enrolled and attending ECD pr
programs while 80.2 percent children are not enrolled in
ECD programs.
2.1.4 SAFETY AND PROTECTION

Safety and security of young children is an important element to foster their growth and
development. Att young age, children cannot defend themselves and are vulnerable to the actions of
parents, Daycare workers, other members of the family,, service providers and the community
members at large. Findings of a study VAC conducted in 2009 on Violence against Children C in
Tanzania revealed that,, young children are subjected to various forms of abuses, violence and
neglect at home and at service provision institutions such as schools, madrasa, hospitals and other
public utilities (VAC-URT,
URT, 2011)
2011). Unicef reported that 28% girls and 13% of the boys experienced
sexual violence during childhood and physical violence is even mor
more:: 74% of the girls and 72% of the
boys.
Other challenges include poor registration of children at birth where it is reported that only 16% of
children under 5 years have been registered and about 8% received a birth certificates
certificate (Unicef),
child work-force
force exploitation and labour where about o one
ne in five children from 5 to 17 of age is
engaged in child labor (UNICEF 2012) . Child care and protection at household level is now a major
challenge. Unlike in the past childcare now has been delegated to child sitters instead of parents
and close family members (UNICEF 2012).

Neglected children do not thrive. Unfortunately many children in Tanzania suffer from active abuse
and violence. 30 % of adolescent girls in Mwanza reported that their first sexual experience was a
forced one. And also violence against children in a physical and psychological way is very common
in the Mwanza
wanza region as the work of Fondation Karibu Tanzania
(http://foundationkaributanzania.blogspot.com
tionkaributanzania.blogspot.com ) shows.
Services delivery in Mwanza City and the region has serious problems in terms of its quality and
quantity. Inappropriate planning and administratio
administration
n in terms of the distribution of limited resources
is a crucial issue that need reorientation of the management towards meeting service levels that

meet the requirements of the City residents

residents-including and specialy for children between age 0-80
years. Moreover,
over, the low level of social services’ provision: - access to water, sewerage services,
piped water, and health & education services further impacts the early childhood development in
the region.
2.1.5 E ARLY STIMULATION AND CARE

Play and early stimulation is very
ery important to children as it fosters growth physically,
physically socially and
mentally. Despite its importance there is inadequate understanding on the need to invest in early
stimulation for young children at their early age in early learning centers, homes, schools
sc and other
social centers that include provision of play areas in both rural and urban setting. Most of the open
grounds originally set aside as play areas have been sold to investors leaving children to play in
dangerous locations such as along roadsroads,, hilly or rocky terrains (UNICEF 2012).
2012) Children with
disabilities are the most disadvantaged as they need special facilities to cater for their play which
are expensive, making it inaccessible to most of the children.

There is no specific data on the issue of early stimulation and care for the Mwanza region, further
research is needed urgently about it. But eearly stimulation and care in most ost of parts of Mwanza
region like in the whole country, is not much taken in considerationion as it seems to be like part of an
activity that a child must do by onesel
oneself and not to be facilitated by parents or caregivers.
caregivers The early
stimulation especially
ially for most children is done by peer groups and parents play a very minimal
role. About playgrounds
unds in the Mwanza region there are no specific information, but looking around
it seems, there are some few playgrounds at some hotels – but as there is an entrance fee to pay –
it is not accessible for a huge amount of children specially not for the most vulnerable children.
2.2 WHAT ARE THE MAJOR FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO POOR IECD SERVICES?
Of course some reasons are caused in the poverty of the country and in the families. Analyzing the
situation with the levels of the ecological model of the human development developm from Uri
Bronfenbrenner, in all levels factors contributing to the actually situation can be found:

2.3 CURRENT INTERVENTIONS TO MITIGATE CHALLENGES

There are a number of interventions undertaken by government,
ernment, CSOs and other stakeholders to
mitigate some of the challenges that children face at homes, and in public institutions. The
government on its part is setting policy framework to facilitate quality provision of ECD services,
providing resource base for LGAs and other actors and building capacity of difference stakeholders.

_________________________________________________________________________________________
The government is also responsible for setting means and tools to facilitate engagement of actors
and monitoring their performance at all levels.
2.3.1 THE ROLE PLAYED BY THE CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS (CSO S)

 CSOs in Mwanza regional in mitigating child issue they are implementing different intervention
basing on five issues, nutritional, protection, education, guidance and health. On nutrition there
are some organizations which are engaged direct in production goat milk, yellow potatoes, and
poultry for the purpose of getting eggs for children.
 Other organizations are directly engaged in raising family income for the purpose of enabling
the community to meet child basic needs.
 Other organization are advocating child protec
protection
tion through guidance and care by sensitize the
community on foster and adaption care and provision of parenting skills. There also some
organization implementing gender based violence at domestic level for the purpose purpo of
protection children against domestic violation.
 On education most of the organizations are providing scholastic materials, infrastructure,
infrastru and
capacity building for ECD/primary
/primary teachers for the purpose of ensuring accessibility and quality

organization.
 Furthermore there some organizations which are engaged on advocating on children with
disability by community sensitization and awareness raising, capacity bu building

and education related to the welfare of young children, parents and the public at large. Among the
roles played by media includes:
includes:-
 Implementations of programs aiming at changing people’s attitudes and practices toward
improving children’s welfare and conditions.
 Publication and documentation of News and events aiming at raising awareness on public
health and care for children. These include HIV/AIDS campaign, Maternal Health,Health PMTCT

4 INSIDE ANALYSIS
As TECDEN is active now since several years we also want to see how the network is
working. How do our members in the region share information and knowledge, work
together, learn from each other and communicate. And also we want to know how our
member capacity is. To have this insight will help TECDEN to really focus on strengthening
the network and build the capacity of its members.
We send 82 questionnaires out and got 57 back. This mean
meanss we had a return quote of 70%.
4.1 HOW ARE THE MEMBERS O

OF TECDEN M WANZA CHAPTER NETWORKING?
The insight analysis of the TECDEN Mwanza chapter shows that information sharing is for 40 of the
member common but still 26% didn’t get any information during the last 12 month from other
members about ECD topics.
Working together with other members in a joint proje project

ct is not usual for the Mwanza chapter
c
members, only very few has joint projects. That means, every NGO has more or less their own
projects and reach the children around their surroundings. The question is, if with joint projects
costs could be reduced and more beneficiaries could be reached and maybe also quality could be
enhanced because of knowledge sharing. And another question is why is it like this? thi Is this a result
of donor driven attitude,, is it because of lack of will or ability of the NGO’s
NGO’s?
We also wanted to know if our members get information and capacity building on the topics of child
protection, nutrition, health, education and early stimu
stimulation / care and development from
anywhere. The
he results shows, that on average almost 30% of our members didn’t receive any
information
rmation from anywhere about ECD topics. 44% of the members received one or two times
information about the ECD topics and only 25% got ECD information
ation for 3 to 5 times in the last 12
month.. Looking about which topic the information was about, then the most communicated
information was about education and child protection. This means, we have to find out, why some
of our members don’tn’t get any information and w
which
hich information is needed more and through
which communication canal the members can be reached.

_________________________________________________________________________________________
Looking to capacity building on ECD topics we can see 40% of the members didn’t get any capacity
building on ECD topics thee last 12 month. 40% had one or two trainings and only 20% had regularly
capacity building from 3 to 5 times in the last 12 month. Capacity building was mostly about
abou ‘child
protection and ‘early stimulation
ulation and and care as well. In the average the members didn’t get more
than
n one capacity building workshop on each topic.
It seems, that
hat the contacts with the TECDEN secretariat in the Mwanza chapter was not very
intensive during the last 12 month. About 40% has not been in contact with the TECDEN secretariat.
secretaria
This result is difficult to understand, as in the beginning of the 2015 the election of the leaders was
done and also in the august meeting more then 40 members where at the workshop at Binti
Maringo. Maybe this question was missunderstud. But still, to strenghten the network TECDEN
should be more in contact with its members.

4.2 HOW IS THE CAPACITY O

OF THE TECDEN M WANZA CHAPTER MEMBERS ?
The answers of these questions allow to learn more how our members are running their
organizations and which supsupport
port they need to strengthen their organization.
organization Only a few
don’t plan but most of them plan per year. More tha
than
n 50% are on time with their program.
Only a few don’t have an activity plan and 17% are behind their plan. Almost
A 50% have
organized in divisions and
d some are working together on democratic decisions.
Monitoring and Evaluation seems to be not very integrated in the working processes of the
members. Only one organization said they do it frequently, a few don’t do it at all and it
seems that most of them do it on a yearly basis.
The results off the board meetings are different. Most of the meetings where held on 2015 and only
a few members didn’t have a boaboardd meeting in 2015. In the average they have 6 board members
and report a good support from their board.
All these results above show how the members self report their work and progress. It is not in the
interest of TECDEN to judge if this is good or not, it helps a little bit to know how TECDEN can
support the network maybe more. Very important are the needs of our members. As they answered
they would like to have capacity building on ‘Leadership and management’ and ‘strategic planning’
as well (both 56% of the members want this this) and then also on ‘proposal
oposal writing’.
writing’ It is very
18

TECDEN

_________________________________________________________________________________________
important, that TECDEN

CDEN takes this needs seriously and try to support with capacity building on
these topics.
21% of the members are running an ECD Center and around 25% have the interest or plan to build
one. This could be another topic to support the members and maybe aalso lso support the working
together in some projects to build ECD ccenters. It would also be interesting
ing to see how the ongoing
ECD centers
enters are doing and if they also can support to build new ones with giving knowledge to
others so that in the Mwanza region th
the numbers of ECD Centers and their quality can increase. So
that every child has the chance to reach an EECD D center a mapping of ECD centers would be
necessary so that the new centers can be build at the right places.

Despite
espite the fact that there are many issues for young children that need research,
research there have been
few undertaken to enable different actors plan and implement interventions that are meant to
improve the life and welfare of the child. TECDEN iintends to embark on comprehensive research

6 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY - OUR MODEL OF CHANGE

As TECDEN is a network andnd is a life from its members the approach of “sharing” will be
used. We bring TECDEN members, information, knowledge, science, best practices and also
external stakeholders like media or community and government members together.
Specially
ecially in the “donordriven” NGO business, sharing and working together seems to be
very important to save resources and really change the actually situation with a strong
voice.
In our logical framework we show how we th think

ink to reach our goal. Which resources
re we put
in, which activities
es with which participants we will have in our output and then we describe
our outcomes for short, middle and long term.

As monitoring and evaluation is an ong
ongoing
oing issue to make sure the goals will be reached a
quarterly monitoring session will be done with the TECDEN Mwanza Chapter Leaders.
We will evaluate on different levels and for quality as quantity as well. Using our model of
change we measure some of o our activities on the output level to see how many members
or other stakeholder we could reach with ours activities.
Onn the outcome level we measure reaching of learning goals, and middle and/or

8.2.1 REPORTING TO STAKEHOLDERS -MEMBERS, DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS AND GOVERNMENT
Yearly there iss an annual report to all stakeholders like members, development
partners and the government. This report includes the following topics:
1. Results from the evaluation with identified areas of improvement

2. A written report about lessons learned, changes in the th plan and
reasons
3. Financial
inancial key data
According to our development partners we adapt our reporting system.
8.3 RISK MANAGEMENT AND SUSTAINABILITY

TECDEN takes sustainability in a broader perspective than looking at the financial aspects alone. We
shall therefore strive to develop and maintain the following strategies:
 Attracting and maintaining committed members and partners who wish to make a change
to the life of young children in Tanzania. W
Wee believe that having strong members will result
into a strong TECDEN
 TECDEN aspires to establish a competent team of experienced staff in order to ensure that
all programs are professionally managed with focus to our vision and mission. Greater focus
is therefore directed to ensure that a strong institutional base is eestablished
stablished through
developing relevant competencies at all levels. We expect that potential development
partner will recognize this need and give TECDEN the needed support to realize this
objective.
 Solicit (broaden) reliable internal sources of funding or support to minimize over
dependency on external donor support.
 Establish a positive “TECDEN’s
TECDEN’s status quo” as a credible organization able to demonstrate
changes/results no matter how small they may appear to be.
 Striving to develop a long term and integ
integrated
rated advocacy program for young children than
operating short term and isolated project. Advocacy is never ending, it is a life-long
life agenda
as along children are in place
