Job Description
Project: Making Governance Work for Older Women and Men in Tanzania.
Goal: Document stories depicting how older women and men championed accountability
Action By: External Consultant
Location(s) of the activity: Simiyu and Zanzibar
Implementation Dates: August, 2020
Background
By 2050, there will be over 2 billion people aged 60 and over compared to 928 million today, with the majority living in low and middle-income countries. The fastest growth is taking place in developing countries such as Tanzania. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with the ‘leave no one behind’ commitment has given older people new visibility in the post 2015 process. However, the scale, pace and impact of demographic ageing requires us to think beyond older people as a homogenous, minority or vulnerable group. Unless the heterogeneity of older populations is understood, it is not possible to develop successful policies or plans effectively.
Despite significant achievements made as a result of: interventions supported through AcT 1 (2011-2015), the relative political stability Tanzania enjoys, and the steady economic growth the country recorded over the years, deepening socioeconomic inequalities persist. This impacts the quality of life for older people in the country, mainly characterised by: poor access to essential public services such as healthcare, lack ofincome, isolation, and exclusion from national development plans, policies and strategies. Stereotyping, discrimination, and systemic exclusion of older people are common while age and gender-based violence, discrimination and abuse are rampant. CEDAW recognizes that “discrimination experienced by older women is often multidimensional, compounded by gender, ethnic origin, disability, poverty levels, sexual orientation and gender identity, migrant status, marital and family status, literacy and other grounds”. Tanzania is a highly gender unequal country, ranking 125th in the 2014 Gender Inequality Index. Gender inequality is widespread and is seen across all sectors from the household level to the job market and most obviously in the limited representation of women in political positions despite the 50/50 commitment made at the SDGs.
Consequently, the majority of the over 2.5 million people aged 60 and over, older women in particular, who this intervention will target, are disproportionately marginalised often invisible, voiceless, and lack protection from violence and abuse. They are denied the choices and participation, and their contribution to society is generally undermined. This is more pronounced in the three successive Global Age Watch Index reports that ranked Tanzania among the low performing countries in the overall wellbeing of older citizens. In the 2015 Global Age Watch Index, Tanzania ranked 91 out of 96 countries in access to incomes, ensuring health and security.
The AcT Phase 2 (AcT 2) interventions were proposed to ensure greater inclusion, dignity, access to quality health and care and secure lives through regular and sustainable universal income, and increased protection from wanton killings due to witchcraft accusations. This is consistent with the commitments made by the 5th Government as per its election manifestos and the various national policies and strategies and global and regional conventions and treaties to which it is a signatory.
