Hello, my name is Fadhili Mwalingo, I am a Youth Advocate for the KUYENDA Collective from Mbeya, Tanzania. I’m happy to share my story with You! Last year I managed to mobilize my fellow youth and together with the authorities we were able to rebuild the bridge that has been destroyed by heavy rain and strong wind. Now students from Ndola village cross it to reach Nsalala Secondary School safely. Yes, it took a while, but the result was rewarding!

One of the major social issues currently unfolding in Tanzania is the implementation of the 2014 Education and Training Policy. The Government of the United Republic of Tanzania, under the leadership of H.E. Dr. Samia Suluhu Hassan, has shown commitment to achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for Tanzanians through the accessibility and availability of quality education for students and the involvement of citizens in improving education.

In 2022, a dedicated group of rural youth attached to Kuyenda Initiative in Mbogwe District embarked on a mission to tackle the challenges facing their community, focusing on education and child protection. Among them were thirteen passionate students and nine ambitious young entrepreneurs, all driven by a shared goal of making a difference. Motivated by a sense of responsibility, the group decided to visit various institutions, including local schools, churches, and village governments, where they aimed to better understand the pressing issues affecting their community.
