Download or read book Reaching Orphans and the Most Vulnerable Children in Tanzania written by Tait Stone Davidson and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is common knowledge that the world population of orphans is increasing exponentially, particularly on the African continent. HIV/AIDS continues to destroy African communities, annihilating the population of those demographics which are most necessary for the productivity of these communities. It has an especially damaging effect on the 24-40 year-old age bracket which is needed, among other things, for the work of raising children. Children are consequently left alone, without anywhere to go, except perhaps to a distant relative, who may or may not care for or about them. Serving as a Peace Corps Volunteer in a village in Tanzania, the author wonders how orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) are being cared for, and what kind of services or support they are receiving in the village and district where she lived as an HIV/AIDS teacher. Who is there to help them if their relatives are unable, lacking resources and/or motivation? And where does the government fit into this quagmire, on a village to country level? What is the government0́9s role in ameliorating this escalating crisis? And larger organizations, such as Community Based Organizations (CBOs) and Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs) - what part are they playing? This study strives to answer the question, 0́−Reaching Orphans and the Most Vulnerable Children in Tanzania: What is Working?0́+ Or if applicable, what is not working? In order to research this question, the author conducts interviews with 15 families caring for orphans, inquiring of both the caretakers and the youth themselves, about the current household conditions and what services they are receiving, if any. Conversations take place with local leaders on the village, ward and district levels to assess the available orphan support. Lastly, CBO and NGO directors in the nearest town, Makambako, are consulted in order to learn more about orphan services. In her extension year with the Peace Corps in Arusha, at an Orphan Vocational Training Center, she continues to research the local perspective on the orphan crisis. The author earnestly pursues creative models of orphan care and support, in addition to engaging in dialogue with local heroes. She concludes with critiques of her assigned place of work, and her role as a foreigner working to empower OVC.
Download or read book Most Vulnerable Children in Tanzania written by Godfrey Kacholi and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-01 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book wants to share the experiences that most vulnerable children encounters in the context of health and access to health care. In 2009, the number of most vulnerable children was estimated at two million. The rights of these children to social services including health which is under threat in light of increasing poverty, over-stretched extended families and insufficient mechanisms to ensure policy implementation. This is a qualitative study conducted in two wards of Morogoro Municipal that included 35 participants who were interviewed to obtain the information from them to build on the arguments and conclusions made in the literature. The study reveals that, policies that protect the poor are in place, yet the challenge remains at the implementation level. The socio-economic status of most households affects their accessibility to health services, implementation of user fees systems have remain to affect the poor. The challenges around the quality of services have been revealed in terms of inadequacy of drugs, human resources for health.
Download or read book Vulnerable Within the Vulnerable written by Helen K. Bisimba and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adoption and ratification of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) 1989 came as a promise to the improvement of children's well-being and status throughout the globe. The African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the African Child (ACRWC) sparked more hope for the African Child. A number of initiatives by governments and Non Governmental Organisations (NGOs) have been undertaken to enforce the rights of the child; yet children continue to suffer from various injustices. In Tanzania orphaned children heading households (OCHH) suffer even more as they struggle between adult and children roles. This thesis reveals a disconnection between the perspectives of the OCHH and those of the different governance institutions supposed to protect the children at the local, national and global levels. In a socio-legal study this thesis uses ethnographic techniques to focus on the OCHH themselves and their perspectives. It explores their understandings and the role played by the multitude of governance institutions around them, which do not seem to address the injustices facing them. The thesis uses governance, law and ethic of care approaches to analyse the children's position. It argues that although OCHH suffer, they are not 'suffering bodies' instead they are 'political persons' claiming their agency.
