Transformative Education – “Elimu Yenye Kuleta Mabadiliko”

Global Action Week for Education serves as a pivotal moment for education advocates, policymakers, and stakeholders worldwide to unite in advancing the agenda for quality education. In 2024, GAWE was poised to spotlight the theme of "Transformative Education," recognising the critical role of education in fostering societal change and sustainable development. The Tanzanian government has recently advanced efforts to institutionalise transformative education within the national education system. This strategic move follows the comprehensive review of curricula and the Education and Training Policy (ETP) of 2014, version 2023, reflecting a commitment to modernise and enhance the quality of education in the country. TEN/MET has steadfastly commemorated the Global Action Week for Education (GAWE) for the past 17 years, starting in 2007. Each year, a region is selected based on identified educational challenges corresponding to the chosen theme.
