Enabel is the Belgian agency for international cooperation. Our mission
is to build a sustainable world where all live under the rule of law and
are free to thrive. With our partners, we offer solutions addressing
pressing global challenges – Climate Change, Social and Economic
Inequalities, Urbanisation, Peace and Security, Human Mobility – and
promoting Global Citizenship.
We have over 20 years' experience in areas ranging from education and health care to agriculture, environmental protection, digitalisation, employment and governance. Enabel’s expertise is eagerly sought-after by partners around the globe – ranging from the Belgian government, European Union institutions, governments of other countries and the private sector. We work with civil society, research institutes as well as businesses and we foster fruitful interaction between development policy and other areas.
With over 2,100 staff, Enabel manages about 170 projects in more than twenty countries, in Europe, Africa and the Middle East.

Background
The Country Strategy for Enabel Bilateral Cooperation Program in Tanzania 2023-2027 was approved on 15th July 2022 by the Belgian Minister of Development Cooperation, with a planned duration of 5 years (2023-2027) and an overall budget of 25 million euros.
The general objective of the strategy has been defined as follows: “Young people especially young women, are empowered to thrive in a protective and gender-equal environment, to acquire education and skills, and to pursue decent work opportunities in Kigoma Region”.
The specific objective further specifies: “Girls and young women (14 to 29 years), in targeted districts of Kigoma, are empowered, access multiple conducive learning pathways and enjoy decent and green employment and entrepreneurship”.
For the period 2023-2027, Enabel developed an integrated approach fully focused on girls and young women through three results areas of the same holistic intervention as defined below:
Context
To get and keep more girls and boys in Kigoma in secondary education or VET-training, and to facilitate access to decent work, multiple demand-and supply-side barriers must be addressed; investments have to be made to address barriers that are unevenly affecting girls.
Gender-sensitive school environments consider the needs and preoccupations of girls at the age of adolescence and puberty. Hostels, a preferred solution that has been suggested by many stakeholders, do not only address the distance barrier, but they also reduce the risk of GBV on the way to/from schools and increase learning performance (because girls, in the absence of domestic duties, can invest more time in homework and study).
Women’s organisations, schools, training centres, private sector partners and Local Government have the information, knowledge and skills needed to advocate for women’s empowerment in Kigoma and provide gender responsive services.
