Young people hold the potential to drive innovation and change. Empowering them with skills, knowledge, and self-confidence ensures they can overcome challenges, become self-reliant, and shape a brighter future for themselves and their communities.

3. Women

Women are the backbone of families and communities... often playing a pivotal role in nurturing and education. By supporting women, especially in areas like health. economic empowerment, and leadership, we create ripple effects that enhance the well-being of entire households and accelerate community development.

Kinda Education Support

Our Thematic Areas

Imagine waking up every day in a community where access to clean water is a luxury, where education is a distant dream, and where health services are scarce. In rural Tanzania, this is the harsh reality for countless families. Over 60% of children in these areas do not complete primary education, and many face life-threatening health issues due to lack of clean water and proper sanitation facilities. These challenges create a cycle of poverty that can last for generations. At KESU we believe that every child deserves a chance at a brighter future. Our mission is simple yet profound: to ensure that every child in rural Tanzania has access to quality education, essential healthcare, clean water, and proper sanitation. By addressing these critical areas, we empower children to break free from the cycle of poverty and build a hopeful future for themselves and their communities.

Water

Clean Water and Sanitation

WASH is an acronym for “Water,” “Sanitation” and Hygiene.” The WASH concept is used in the international development field to refer to initiatives aimed at equitable and accessible water and sanitation for all, particularly girls.

Economic

Economic Empowerment

Tanzania's population exceeds 65 million (2024 estimate), with a significant proportion being youth (15–34 years), making it one of the youngest populations globally. The labor force is growing rapidly, with approximately 1 million new entrants annually.

TANZANIA HIV IMPACT SURVEY

The Tanzania HIV Impact Survey 2022-2023 (THIS 2022-2023) was a household-based national survey among adults (defined as those aged 15 years and older) that measured the impact of the country’s national and regional HIV response. THIS 2022-2023, which was conducted from November 2022 through March 2023, offered HIV counseling and testing with return of results, and collected information about uptake of HIV prevention, care and treatment services. THIS 2022- 2023 estimated national HIV incidence and national and regional HIV prevalence among adults, as well as national and regional prevalence of viral load suppression (VLS), defined as HIV RNA 1,000 copies per mL among adults living with HIV. THIS 2022-2023 also provided critical information on national and regional progress toward HIV epidemic control—including progress towards achieving the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) 95-95-95 targets.

CONCLUSIONS

• THIS 2022-2023 found that there were approximately 60,000 new cases of HIV among adults in Tanzania during the survey year.

• There were marked variations in HIV prevalence by age, sex, and region, with a higher prevalence among women and in certain regions of Mainland Tanzania. HIV prevalence was below 1% in all the regions of Zanzibar.

• The prevalence of VLS among all adults living with HIV was 78%, but there were substantial regional differences. In addition, men were less likely to achieve VLS than women, and generally, younger adults were less likely to have VLS than older adults.

• Tanzania has met the second of the three UNAIDS 95-95-95 targets ahead of 2025, demonstrating access to robust treatment programs among those who are aware of their HIV-positive status.

• Enhanced case finding among populations who are unaware of their HIV-positive status or outside of the care system remains an important program intervention to address gaps in the first 95.

• Continuing a differentiated service delivery approach to HIV services, tailored to accommodate population-specific needs of populations, remains important to maintain gains in treatment coverage and viral load suppression.

• To advance UNAIDS’ 2030 goal of ending the AIDS epidemic, a focus on ongoing surveillance to detect new HIV infections, coupled with the timely provision of treatment and combination prevention services to interrupt further transmission, will be crucial.

RESPONSE RATES AND HIV TESTING METHODS

Of 18,586 eligible households, 92.8% completed a household interview. Among 39,442 eligible adults (22,031 women and 17,411 men), 33,663 (19,292 women and 14,371 men) were interviewed and tested for HIV. The overall response rate was 79.2%: 81.3% for women and 76.6% for men. HIV prevalence testing was conducted in each household using a serological rapid diagnostic testing algorithm based on Tanzania’s national guidelines, with laboratory confirmation of seropositive samples using a supplemental assay. For confirmed HIV-positive samples, laboratory-based testing was conducted for quantitative evaluation of viral load and qualitative detection of ARVs (dolutegravir, efavirenz, atazanavir, and lopinavir). A laboratory-based incidence testing algorithm (HIV-1 limiting antigen-avidity assay with correction for viral load and detectable ARVs) was used to distinguish recent from long-term infection. Incidence estimates were obtained using the formula recommended by the World Health Organization Incidence Working Group and Consortium for Evaluation and Performance of Incidence Assays. Survey weights were utilized for all estimates.
