Nafgem Tanzania

NAFGEM, in collaboration with MoH and regional partners, is supporting healthcare workers with the knowledge and skills needed to deliver quality antenatal, postnatal, and safe delivery services. The RMO officially opened the project introduction session in Kilimanjaro, marking a significant milestone in our commitment to building a stronger, more responsive health system.
Through coordination, mentorship, and facility mapping, we are reaching mothers, newborns, and vulnerable communities where it matters most.
Together, we are improving care at every level.

Today, NAFGEM continued providing education on child rights and protection. particularly in efforts to eliminate female ge***al mutilation (FGM), child marriage, and teenage pregnancy through the Watoto Imara Project.

The project is being implemented in three councils: Hai and Siha in Kilimanjaro Region, and Simanjiro in Manyara Region. It aims to empower children with knowledge and life skills on Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH), protection, and safety, while also supporting Children Living with HIV (CLHIV) who face challenges related to high viral load (HVL).

One of the key activities of the project is the establishment of Safe Spaces—dedicated rooms that provide children with a safe environment to share important information, express their concerns, and seek support.

In Simanjiro District, the project has distributed various items to schools including Londorkes, Orkirung’urung, and Donyongijape. These include TV sets, cabinets, sanitary pads, tables, benches, and educational materials carrying key project messages to support children’s learning, wellbeing, and protection.

We extend our sincere thanks to our project donor, Crossroads International, for their valuable support in making these initiatives possible.

Together, we continue working to protect children’s rights and build safer communities for every child.💙
