Plan Tanzania: what we do

Plan Tanzania’s work covers 5 key areas, all of which are rooted in the rights of the child:

• Safe environment for children and youth
• Fair start in Early Childhood Care and development (ECCD)
• Healthy life
• Children and youth voice
• Household economic security (KUJIKIMU)

Plan started working in Tanzania in 1991. We have a presence in 5
regions; Dar Es Salaam, Coast, Ifakara (Morogoro), Geita and Mwanza. In addition, some of our programs are designed to have a national reach through advocacy, media and partnership.

Our longer term Country Goals is, Children and Youth are Empowered, Respected and Responsible.  Under this goal, Plan Country Programs are designed to correspond with the four pillars of the Convention on the Rights of the Child - CRC.

Plan Tanzania

Plan has been working in Tanzania since 1991, helping poor children to access their rights to health, education, sanitation, livelihoods and protection.

We operate in 6 areas across Tanzania and work with 30,000 sponsored children, their families and their communities.

Currently, we are focusing on community-led total sanitation (CLTS), which inspires communities to stop open-air defecation because of its negative impact on health. So far we have introduced CLTS in over 60 villages and many of them have declared themselves ‘open defecation free’.
