against violence in the society. TAMWA assists women by giving them education and other ways of
fighting against violence. These ways include condemning and fighting against gender- based violence,
female genital mutilation, teenage pregnancies, child abuse, and inheritance of widows, rape, and
assault and child marriage. TAMWA promotes women and children’s rights projects and has set up
advisory centers where women go for legal advice and counseling.

Other NGOs like the Medical Women Association of Tanzania (MEWATA) also helps women with
health problems to get various services for improving their health and social wellbeing. Likewise, Legal
and Human Rights Centre (LHRC) conducts research and publishes reports on human rights practice in
Tanzania. The LHRC is responsible for empowering the public, promoting, strengthening and
maintaining human rights and good governance in Tanzania. Furthermore, Tanzania Women Lawyers
Association (TAWLA) provides legal assistance to women and the society at large. Religious
institutions also promote and protect HUMAN RIGHTS. They preach about peace and love and
equality among people despite their religious differences. Moreover, media outlets like the radio and
television educate people on how to promote and advocate for human rights.
