Policy Brief - The Status of Women's Economic Empowerment in Tanzania
This brief relies on data and findings from the Social Institutions and Gender Index (SIGI) report for Tanzania conducted in 2022, complemented by online literature. “Unlocking Economic Potential,” this policy brief, explores the various dimensions of women’s economic empowerment in Tanzania to thoroughly examine the obstacles, prospects, and workable policy suggestions. With a dedication to creating a just and inclusive society in mind, this policy brief was created. It is based on the knowledge that women’s economic empowerment is a strategic need for sustainable development and human rights. Tanzania may gain from greater productivity, resilience, and creativity by utilizing the latent potential of women in the workforce. This policy brief provides a compass for navigating Tanzania’s complicated landscape of women’s economic empowerment by pointing toward a more affluent, equitable, and inclusive future. We work to establish an atmosphere where women not only make substantial economic contributions but also emerge as catalysts for creativity, resilience, and sustainable development by recognizing and confronting the obstacles.
