Implementation of Views about Children in Tanzania during the UN Year of the
Child 1990

In Tanzania, the United Nations Year of the Child in 1990 brought about
significant changes and initiatives regarding children’s rights and welfare. The year
was dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of protecting and
promoting the rights of children globally. In Tanzania, this initiative led to various
implementations and actions that aimed to improve the lives of children across the
country.

1. Legislative Changes: During the UN Year of the Child in 1990, Tanzania made
significant strides in enacting laws and policies that focused on safeguarding
children’s rights. One concrete example is the Children’s Act of 2009, which was a
culmination of efforts initiated during the UN Year of the Child. This act provided a
legal framework for protecting children from abuse, exploitation, and neglect.

2. Education and Healthcare: In line with the views promoted during the UN Year
of the Child, Tanzania prioritized investments in education and healthcare for
children. The government increased access to primary education and healthcare
services, aiming to ensure that every child had access to quality education and
healthcare facilities.

3. Awareness Campaigns: The UN Year of the Child in 1990 also saw an increase
in awareness campaigns aimed at sensitizing communities about children’s rights. In
Tanzania, various organizations and government bodies organized workshops,
seminars, and outreach programs to educate parents, caregivers, and communities
about child protection issues.

4. Child Participation: Another important aspect emphasized during this period was
child participation in decision-making processes that affected them. Tanzania
encouraged initiatives that gave children a platform to express their views and
opinions on matters concerning their well-being.

5. Social Welfare Programs: The government of Tanzania also implemented social


welfare programs targeting vulnerable children, such as orphans and street children.
These programs aimed to provide support, shelter, education, and healthcare
services to those in need.

6. International Cooperation: During the UN Year of the Child in 1990, Tanzania


collaborated with international organizations like UNICEF to implement projects
aimed at improving child welfare across the country. This cooperation helped
leverage resources and expertise to address key challenges facing Tanzanian
children.

Overall, Tanzania’s response to the views promoted during the UN Year of the Child
in 1990 reflected a commitment to enhancing child rights protection, education,
healthcare, awareness, participation, and social welfare programs.
