Dr Imna Malele, ACT co-ordinator in Tanzania, has sent us a report about an event held in Tanga in December. This celebration of the work of ACT within the Chumbageni community in Tanga brought together children and widows that ACT is supporting as well as church leadership, Care team and the civil society. They were able to hear about the work ACT is doing primarily in Tanzania and also elsewhere in Africa.
Many of the widows showed an interest in learning how to start income-generating activities so they could become more self-sufficient. The Care Team in Tanga hope to provide skills training in this area in the future.
