As the world on Friday marks the Day of the Girl Child, the group’s rights advocates in Tanzania released a research report highlighting the ongoing plight of the children in various parts of the country.

 

A report released by the Msichana Initiative says the country’s child welfare is falling in five years, raising concerns.

The report says the rate of children getting pregnant despite various efforts to address the situation remains high.

 

The experts who prepared the report note that the overall environment for a girl in Tanzania is not friendly if she is forced to skip various types of sedatives, including those from environmental disturbances such as those within the family.

The injustice and injustice of many groups of children is another area that continues to be a thorny issue that has led to its suffering being cross-examined.

The situation as noted by researcher Rebbeca Gyumi has been caused by an increase in incidents such as those related to sexual violence.

 

The lack of educational opportunities is another thorn that is still holding back the well-being of many girls, especially those in rural areas where the embrace of traditional traditions is still flourishing in some areas.

 

Although the government has taken a rightward approach to expanding the opportunities of the school by continuing with the construction of schools, many girls are still swimming in the face of lack of education.

 

The head of the Girl Initiative, Gyumi says there is a lot that makes girls less accessible.

 

Despite the massive efforts pushed by civil society with the backing of the executive authorities, many statistics from international circles suggest girls still face a long way to reach their well-being.

 

Expert Fundikira Wazambi who participated in a study on the well-being of girls says it is likely that this is part of a patriarchy that is beginning to take root from the family level and then continue even in schools.

 

As a step towards tackling the ongoing violence, girls across the country will be at a special conference under the umbrella of the girl’s agenda, analyzing and finding ways to cross the barriers.

 

Local expert Enjoy Michael says the platform is focused on a range of areas that are challenging for girls but this trip will be more focused on two areas, including the one that touches on leadership.

 

On December 19, 2011, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a special resolution and declared October 11 as the International Day of the Girl Child, setting out a set of priorities that will enable the child to overcome the challenges facing her.
