dc.description.abstract | It is estimated that 86% of children aged 2 to 14 are subjected to sexual, emotional
and physical abuse globally. Regardless of the vulnerable situations, which expose
children to the risk of being harmed, it is very possible to prevent children from harm
by having commitments and deliberate efforts by different actors such as families
(including kin), communities, states, NGOs, international organizations, or other
stakeholders concerned with the best interests of children.
The purpose of this thesis was to explore experiences of collaboration between
Advocacy Non Governmental Organizations and Government Social Welfare Officers
in preventing children from sexual, emotional and physical abuse in Arusha, Tanzania.
The thesis is a fieldwork study employing in-depth interviews as method of data
collection.Secondary data was also used in this study. The study included three
government social welfare officers and three representatives from advocacy nongovernmental
organizations.
The study findings indicated that collaboration between advocacy NGOs and
government social welfare officers exists. Furthermore, the study also disclosed
opportunities and challenges of collaboration between advocacy NGOs and
government social welfare officers
Apart from getting their experience of protecting children from harm, the sample was
able to demonstrate nature and experience of collaboration between Arusha City
Social Welfare Officers and Advocacy NGOs working in the child sector in Arusha. | language |
