Child abuse is an undeniable reality, with lasting impacts on a child’s physical health and psychological well-being. In Shinyanga, the problem persists, with a significant proportion of children experiencing some form of abuse.
Through the Keeping School Children Project, funded by Women Fund Tanzania, has taken targeted steps to address this challenge. The initiative established 14 school child safety
desks and 16 junior councils, while training 18 teachers on child protection systems, including how to properly report abuse cases.

The project also supported schools in setting up child-friendly reporting mechanisms, such as suggestion boxes, making it easier and safer for children to speak out.

These efforts have led to increased reporting of abuse cases and improved responsiveness from parents and caregivers, teachers, and government authorities, an important shift toward stronger child protection and accountability.
