Mary Nsénouwa is president of an association known as ‘Haki Elimou’ : ‘the right to education’ in Swahili, the most widespread language in Tanzania. Today she is organising a seminar on education and democracy. In front of an audience of activists and curious spectators she has come to present ‘Friends in Education’, a programme launched by her association. ‘Friends’ advocates the participation of every level of society in the education of children.
But today, above all, Mary is calling for the mobilization of women.

Itv Mary Nsenuwa, President of Haki Elimu Elles peuvent s’informer sur tout ce qui se passe par rapport à l’éducation ... mais elles peuvent également chercher des informations, participer aux comités d’école, et assister aux réunions publiques au lieu de rester à la maison et s’occuper des enfants. Elles peuvent participer activement à ces réunions. Elles peuvent poser des questions et apporter des idées. Elles peuvent contester tout ce qui ne va pas . Alors elles ont leur rôle à jouer. | K72 + retour sur le séminaire |
| | | Commentaire : This week the ‘Haki Elimou’ association is responding to an invitation from the TGNP, the Tanzanian Gender Networking Programme. Here in their premises at Dar Es Salaam, meetings like these are organised every Wednesday... the opportunity for participants to organise a brainstorming session around the question of women’s place in society.
The TGNP is a network of over 150 Tanzanian associations.
When it was founded in 1993 it’s first objective was to prepare for the 1995 World Conference for Women organised by the UN in Beijing. An event that played an unprecedented role in changing mentalities and the conditions of women around the world. Today the NGO is working to make sure the movement that they have been building up over 10 years doesn’t run out of steam. In Tanzania questions of political and economic equality between sexes, autonomy for women and better distribution of resources have all become common topics of debate. This is no time to lose momentum. | Séminaire Insister sur les autres

| 12’12 | 12’39 | Itv Mary Rusimbi, TGNP Il y a des gouvernements, y compris le mien, qui demandent: “De quoi parliez vous ? Oui, vous avez dit qu’il y a un probleme ici. Pouvez-vous nous dire lequel ? ». Ils ont besoin de preuves, les gens sont prêts … et ils arrivent avec ces preuves... la preuve que les femmes meurent dans les maternités. Ce qui n’est pas acceptables. Le gouvernement dit : « Que pouvons nous faire ? » Donner plus d’argent et d’énergie : faire en sorte que ça devienne une politique publique.
Donc, en effet, on peut dire qu’ils commencent à nous écouter. | K71 |
| | | Commentaire : Every two years the TGNP organises the Gender festival, a celebration of parity. Between performances the movement’s campaigners take the stand in a bid to win over new members. A library in the Dar Es Salaam premises is open to all and boasts an impressive source of documentation on the sujects concerned : books by historians and sociologists in English and Swaili. The library also stocks all of the booklets and studies that the association publishes on a regular basis. Today the mouvement is keen to avoid being labelled « feminist ». The TGNP is fighting for parity ... a notion that some men have fully understood. More and more of them are aware that a greater female representation in the public sphere will not just benefit the, so-called, weaker sex : society as a whole stands to gain. In the asociation’s premises men are well represented. | Photos

25’31 26’00 | 25’35 26’16 | Itv Joseph D. Michael, TGNP « La parité des sexes concerne les hommes aussi bien que les femmes (…) Mon rôle est de contribuer au développement de ces questions de parité entre les sexes dans le pays. Et ceci pour améliorer le sort de tout le peuple de Tanzanie … pas seulement celui des femmes. » | K71 |
| | | Commentaire : But while the message is getting across in urban areas it is still little heard in the rural comunities where traditions run deep. Not easily discouraged, the TGNP is strengthening its network, even in the most isolated areas.
Regular seminars are organised to meet the local inhabitants. There is much talk of education and health, the participants explain that women are the main victims of AIDS; that a husand who beats his wife is not a good husband; that it is as important for a little girl to go to school as it is for a little boy and that women are not just there to do the housework. Subjects that have been taboo for so long that many people thought they would never be able to discuss them publicly. | Affiches Photos Séminaire Distribution des docs Marjorie pendant le séminaire |
20’34 24’04 | 20’46 24’17 | Itv Marjorie Mbilinyi, TGNP C’est très difficile de dissocier les questions qui concernent les femmes et les questions qui touchent au revenus et à la classe … et les questions plus générales de développement.
On ne peut pas parler de développement et de la pauvreté sans aborder la question des femmes et de parité. Inversement on ne peut parler des femmes et des questions de sexe sans parler de la pauvreté, du développement, de la démocratie et d’autres questions du genre. | K71 |
| | | Commentaire : In its 10 year campaign the TGNP has had its share of breakthroughs. Inheritance and land-ownership laws are much fairer now for women. Since the year 2000, a policy known as ‘Parity and Develpment’ , based on the conclusions of the Beijing Conference, has been in place. Progress that has placed Tanzania among the fore-runners in terms of male-female parity. But despite such promising signs it is important to remember that women and young girls in Africa are still society’s underclass. | Femmes travaillent Dans rues de DES/ Des femmes |
