Missing Child Tanzania

NOW A national conversation on the strides we have made towards improving the status of women in our country, particularly in #EndingGBV. The 16 Days of Activism gives us the opportunity to re-evaluate our initiatives and ask important questions. Almost 30 years after Beijing, what has changed? Rape, child marriage, economic injustices, policy reforms, etc. - have there been changes? These questions were posed to the audience by our very own @RebecaGyumi – at Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

HAPPENING NOW! We are in Dodoma commemorating the World Day Against #Trafficking in Persons together with the government, fellow child protection stakeholders, students, and community members, showcasing a #united front in combating human trafficking #WDATIP 🌎#EndHumanTrafficking

This International Missing Children's Day reminds us of the importance of community. Let's join forces to protect our children from the unthinkable, giving every child the chance to live and thrive. #MissingChildrenDay #Malezi @missingchildtz

Mpendwa Mzazi/Mlezi, Leo tuzungumzie suala zima la kazi kwa watoto kama lilivyoanishwa na Sheria ya Mtoto ya Mwaka 2009. Kwanza kabisa Sheria hii inatambua umuhimu wa mtoto kufanya kazi pale inapotamka, ‘Mtoto atakuwa na haki ya kufanya kazi nyepesi na kuwa mtoto ana haki ya kulipwa ujira kulingana na thamani ya kazi aliyofanya’. Kwa mujibu wa Sheria kazi nyepesi kwa mtoto zinajumuisha kazi ambazo hazina madhara kwa afya na maendeleo ya mtoto na hazimzuii mtoto au kuathiri maudhurio ya mtoto shuleni, kushiriki katika programu za mafunzo ya ufundi au uwezo wa mtoto kufaidika na kazi za shuleni. Ifahamike kuwa umri wa chini wa mtoto kuajiriwa ni miaka kumi na nne, kwa mujibu wa Sheria hapa Tanzania. Hivyo kabla ya kumuajiri mtoto, mwajiri unapaswa ujiridhishe kuhusu umri wake, na pili kama ajira unayompa mtoto huyu ni ‘nyepesi’ kwa mujibu wa Sheria na kama tulivyoielezea hapo juu. Vilevile, kila mwajiri anapaswa kuhakikisha kuwa kila mtoto aliyeajiriwa au kushughulishwa kulingana na Sheria hii analindwa dhidi ya ubaguzi au vitendo vinavyoweza kuwa na madhara kwa mtoto kwa kuzingatia umri wake na uwezo wake wa kushiriki. Mfano halisi hapa ni kuwa kazi ‘nyepesi’ kwa mtoto wa umri wa miaka 17 inaweza inaweza isiwe nyepesi kwa mtoto mwenye umri wa miaka 14. Busara itumike katika kumpangia mtoto majukumu kazini kulingana na uwezo wake/umri wake. Kwa mujibu wa Sheria, kumpa mtoto kazi bila kuzingatia umri wake ni UNYONYAJI. Sheria ya Mtoto inasema kuwa kazi itachukuliwa kuwa ya kinyonyaji iwapo inadhuru afya ya mtoto au kuathiri maendeleo yake; inazidi saa sita kwa siku; hailingani na umri wake; au kama mtoto anapata malipo pungufu. Vitendo vya kinyonyaji katika ajira za watoto ni kosa la jinai lenye adhabu isiyopungua miezi sita jela ama faini! Wiki hii tutaendelea kujifunza Sheria ya Mtoto inasemaje kuhusu watoto kuajiriwa na kazi hizi za kinyonyaji na hatarishi ni zipi. Tukutane Kesho….. Kwa maswali, maoni au kutoa taarifa juu ya ukatili wowote kwa mtoto, piga #116, Huduma ya Simu kwa Mtoto bila malipo yoyote. #Malezi

The world is embarking on a green transition – a shift towards an environmentally sustainable and climate-friendly planet, which is critical not only for responding to the global climate crisis, but for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. unfpa.org/sdg

MALENGO YA MATEMBEZI: Watoto kuhamasishwa kutumia namba 116, huduma ya simu kwa mtoto nchini ili kuripoti aina yoyote ya unyanyasaji na vikwazo katika kupata haki zao, mahali popote wakati wowote. #SikuYaMtoto | #DAC2023

MALENGO YA MATEMBEZI: Madhumuni ya jumla ya matembezi ya amani ya watoto ni kutilia mkazo agizo la serikali la kubadilisha Sheria ya Ndoa 1971 kwa kusikiliza watoto wanasema nini. #SikuYaMtoto | #DAC2023

“Wape Nafasi Wasichana, Badili Sheria ya Ndoa” ndio kaulimbiu inayoweka mwelekeo wa Siku ya Mtoto wa Afrika kwa muktadha wa Tanzania mwaka huu. #SikuYaMtoto | #DAC2023
