Reduce all forms of abuse and violence against women and girls.
Who we are
A local feminist, non-governmental, and non-profit organization.
Women’s Promotion Centre was formed in 2002 and registered with Reg. No. 00NGO/08295, with a mandate to operate across Tanzania Mainland.
The organization was born from the need to address fundamental problems of rural women in Kigoma. It later evolved into a vibrant feminist voice in Western Tanzania, empowering women groups to build a strong grassroots movement for rights, dignity, equality, safety, and social change.
