Tanzania Home Economics Association

The Tanzania Home Economics Association (TAHEA) is a professional non-government organization established in 1980, with renewed NGO registration in 2022 as Tanzania Home Economics Organization (TAHEA MWANZA). Its mission is to empower communities in Mwanza and beyond to transform their lives socially and economically. Guided by a strong commitment to gender equality, sustainability, and community-driven development, TAHEA Mwanza invests in people through all stages of their lives by implementing programs in early childhood development (ECD), livelihoods, and climate resilience as a synergy to programming. With the concept of family and community at the center of all that they do, over these four decades TAHEA Mwanza has built a legacy of creating systemic change by identifying what the root causes of poverty and inequality are in the communities they work with, and using that to enable individuals and families to take charge of their development.
