Children’s Dignity Forum (CDF) is a voluntary, private, non-governmental, non-partisan, and non-profit making civil society organization dedicated to upholding the rights of children. At CDF, we focus on safeguarding the well-being and dignity of girls and young women in Tanzania by actively working to end harmful practices such as Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), child marriage, teenage pregnancy, and other forms of exploitation. As a leading advocate for children’s rights, we provide a platform for dialogue and advocacy on contentious issues impacting children and young women. As part of strategic approach, we prioritize empowering children and young women to understand and assert their rights, strengthening child protection and participation systems, and engaging men and boys to promote gender equality. We collaborate closely with the government, development partners, and other likeminded organizations at both the national and international levels to advance the cause of children’s rights. Furthermore, CDF serves as the secretariat for two prominent national networks in Tanzania: The Tanzania Ending Child Marriage Network (TECMN) and the MenEngage Tanzania (MET) Network. Through these networks, we intensify our endeavors and advocate for positive reforms in policies and practices that impact children and young women across the nation.
