MAMA SALMA KIKWETE TO LAUNCH RAPID WOMEN TANZANIA MODEL



Mama Salma Kikwete.

The Tanzanian First Lady and Chairperson of Wanawake na Maendeleo Foundation (WAMA) tomorrow will be launching the RapidWomen Tanzania Model in Dar es Salaam.

The RapidWomen Tanzania Model is an interactive software tool that shows how women centered strategies focused on three aspects; Reproductive health, Gender norms and Education, can increase the quality of life of women, families, communities, as well as overall national development thus impacting on the Human Development Index (HDI).

Based on local Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data, the model has great potential as an advocacy tool that can be used by women leaders, government leaders and civil Societies, calling for a more focused 3 prong approach to national development.
