Successful Handover of our Project in Tanzania

One of our education projects in Tanzania has been successfully handed over to the government. This ensures that the project, which ran from 2015 to 2023, will have a lasting impact on education in the country.

We launched the project "Improved quality of education in 20 project schools in the city and district of Geita" in 2015 together with the local partner organisation NELICO (New Light Children Center Organization). The project officially came to an end in 2023. However, the Tanzanian government recognised the benefits and value of the project. After all, it made a significant contribution to improving the learning and teaching environment in the region by providing the necessary materials and resources. In addition, numerous teachers and school management staff were trained, and parents and community members were informed about gender equality. The government has now taken over the project in order to continue these interventions in the long term.
