MAGU COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT INITIATIVE - MCCEI updated its History page.
Magu Comprehensive Community Empowerment Initiative (MCCEI) was officially registered on 18th May 2012.
The establishment of MCCEI was forced by the fact that majority of rural population of Tanzania are characterized by severe poverty, high levels of illiteracy, very limited access to basic social services, food insecurity, common diseases like malaria, typhoid anaemia, acute respiratory infections, diarrhoea, Lack of reproductive health skills and spread of HIV/AIDS which all combined have resulted to poverty, poor health and high mortality rates especially among children.
The MCCEI currently has conducted an organisation capacity assessment to clearly point out her both strengths and weaknesses so as to enable it strategically re-plan its work in the best way.

Stop Gender Based Violence for Family Development (SGBVFD):
This program established by CAFLO purposelly to engage more and increase efforts to combat Gender Based Violence (GBV) in the family and the community at large.
The problem of Gender Based Violence is prevailing rapidly in various rural-urban areas of Tanzania. It results from gender norms, social and economic inequities that give privilege to men over women.
In Tanzania, GBV takes many forms including physical, sexual, psychological and economic violence. It also linked to other broader societal issues such as early marriage, female genital mutilation, forced marriage and widow inheritance. The GBV problem has a greater impact on women and girls as they are most often survivors and suffer greater physical damage than men and boys when victimized.
Thus, this program established by CAFLO aimed at empowering family members to combat gender based violence and thereafter to live healthily and peacefully with full participation to foster socio-economic development in their families, community and the country at large.
For that case, the organization has been playing great role to raise awareness on several aspects such as;
- Advocates for and Protecting women and girls` rights.
- Engage men and boys in efforts to mobilize communities against gender based violence.
- Linking gender based violence and HIV in combating HIV infection in the community.
- Conducting several baseline surveys to identify the magnitude of gender based violence (GBV) in various and different communities.
- Working with young men and women to educate them on reproductive health issues and to promote health decision making.
Therefore, the sustainable financial support is highly required to implement the program effectivelly and efficiently in the community and the country at large.
Economic and sexual violence are among the forms of GBV problem which have been facing many women and girls in Tanzania.
