The Ministry of Health, Community Development, Gender, Elderly and Children, in collaboration with PO-RALG, Tanzania has developed various policies to empower women.

The updated policy is expected to be finalised before the first disbursement. The National Plan of Action to End Violence Against Women and Children (NPA-VAWC 2017/18 – 2021/22, currently under evaluation) is a key component in the implementation of the Gender Development Policy. It aims at eliminating violence against women and children in Tanzania and improve their welfare by preventing and responding to all forms of violence against women and children through comprehensive multi-sectoral collaboration at all levels.

Gender desks are being established in public institutions such as police stations and are planned for courts. One Stop Centres (OSC) were established at district hospitals to promote a survivor-centred approach to violence against women, creating a supportive environment in which a survivor's rights are prioritised and where she is treated with dignity and respect.
