UN Women Tanzania is implementing its Strategic Note (2017-2021),
under which one of the priority areas is women’s leadership and
political participation. The Women’s Leadership and Political
Participation Project (Wanawake Wanaweza) Phase II (2017-2021) builds on
Phase I (2014 – 2017), and continues to promote gender equality and the
empowerment of women as per UN Women’s global mandate and supports the
Government of Tanzania as a Member State to the United Nations to
implement international standards, providing suitable technical and
financial assistance. The second phase of the project aims at achieving
the overarching goal/impact “Women lead and participate in
decision-making at all levels” building on the momentum created and
gains made from the first phase. The project is in line with the UNDAP
II outcome “Women and girls increasingly participate in political and
public life and are elected to leadership positions”, the UN Women
Tanzania, Country Strategic Framework 2017 – 2021; the UN Women Global
Flagship Programme Initiative on Women’s Political Empowerment and
Leadership, as well as, national gender policy, the SDGs (in particular,
Global Goal 5 dedicated to ‘achieve gender equality and empower all
women and girls’, CEDAW and other international and regional
commitments, such as the African Union Agenda 2063.

The
projects operates on three main areas to effect change and progress in
relation to increasing women’s leadership and political empowerment.
Firstly, the policy and institution level (policies, laws, standards,
norms and practices) to ensure these promote and regulate the increase
in women’s leadership at all levels. Secondly, at the individual level,
to strengthen capacities of women to conduct competitive, well-resourced
and innovative campaigns. Thirdly, at the community level, where norms,
attitudes and practices often undermine women’s rights and gender
equality, efforts will work towards reverting these to promote women as
accepted, legitimate political leaders. Reporting to the Communications
Analyst on Women’ Leadership and Political Participation, the
Communications Interns will provide support to the WLPP Programme and UN
Women Country Office on the Communications function, specifically in
the areas of media relations, media monitoring and reporting, and
