theme
The theme of the next issue (02/2024) will be "Work".
In Germany, as in Tanzania, work makes up a large part of life. It determines everyday life and enables people to live, eat and much more thanks to their salary. SDG 8 - Decent Work and Economic Growth aims to ensure that work is fair and adequately remunerated for all. However, due to a lack of qualifications and a tight labor market, many Tanzanians are forced to work under inhumane or unhealthy conditions in order to feed themselves and their families. Despite constant economic growth, young people, people with disabilities and women in rural areas are particularly affected by unemployment. In this online seminar series, we would therefore like to take a closer look at the issue of Article 23 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in Tanzania, which formulates the "right to work, to free choice of employment, to satisfactory working conditions and to protection against unemployment". In addition, historical, social and cultural aspects of work will also be considered: Because work and occupation are also important identification factors in Tanzania. What exactly do Tanzanians understand by "Kazi" (work)? What role did it play in the past and does it play today in achieving a good life? And how do Tanzanians see the future of their and their children's work?
