1. Background to Mwambao
Mwambao
Coastal Community Network was established in 2010 to help communities
in Tanzania’s coastal areas develop strong and effective local resource
management systems that support livelihoods and sustain marine
ecosystems. Mwambao works to empower local communities and enable them
to learn from each other through a community-based network spanning
different coastal areas and communities.

This
network structure fosters learning as well as collective action on
shared interests such as influencing policy. Mwambao aims to achieve the
programmatic goals of gender equality and the empowerment of women
through the advancement of well-being of women and men in all regions of
our work through inclusive and sustainable livelihoods and marine
conservation. Mwambao is committed to integrating gender perspective
into all its policies, programmes, and approaches to supporting coastal
communities.
2. Context:
As Mwambao and our partners
are moving more towards gender focused work, there are a few different
pieces of gender focused work which are needing to be consolidated and
aligned. Mwambao have recently conducted our own rapid gender assessment
which covered a representative sample of all of our sites that we are
currently supporting. The rapid gender assessment conducted by Mwambao
included questions on roles and responsibilities, access and control
over resources, decision-making power, and social and cultural patterns.
These preliminary findings were presented back to the women in a
women’s network meeting as a validation workshop.
There is also a
gender assessment being led by The Nature Conservancy (TNC) with input
from Mwambao which will cover similar themes to our rapid gender
assessment however with a target population of seaweed farmers. TNC will
aim to develop a gender action plan using their findings from the
gender assessment to be conducted in Tanzania and Kenya.
