Conference Participants Enjoying the Festival Spirit

The 2001 Gender Festival was held on 10 to 13 September in Dar es Salaam with the theme "Gender, Democracy and Development: Transformative Approaches for Challenging Impoverishment." The slogan of the conference was "Return Resources to the People." The activist-style Festival combined speeches, paper presentations, case studies and workshops with art performances and an exhibition. The bi-annual event was organized by the Tanzania Gender Networking Programme (TGNP) and the Feminist Activism Coalition (FemAct).

Due to the compelling nature and relevancy of the theme, the conference attracted over 800 participants throughout the course of the 4-day event. 552 participants registered, an increase from the last conference, which was held in 1999, which attracted 430. Among the participants, over 40 came from the Southern African region and internationally. The countries represented included Kenya, Sudan, South Africa, Ghana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Burundi, Uganda, United States, United Kingdom, Netherlands and Switzerland. Organisations and institutions represented included Uganda Debt Network, One World Africa-Zambia, SNV Kenya and Uganda, University of California, Gender and Development Training-Netherlands, HIVOS, Women and AIDS Support Network-Zimbabwe, Forum for African Women in Education (FAWE)-Kenya, Third World Network Africa- Ghana, UNIFEM-Zimbabwe, Eastern Africa Sub-Regional Support Initiative for Women (EASSI)- Kampala, and many others.

Local participants attended the conference from a wide-range of backgrounds. Participants were primarily from civil society organizations based at national, district and local levels. These include delegations from TGNP's 9 Intermediary Gender Networks as well as large number of representatives from CBOs, particularly youth groups, based in Dar es Salaam. There were also a delegation of 10 women Members of Parliament and a large number of women councillors. Government Ministries and international NGOs also sent delegations. Participants came from all over the country and as far as Lindi, Bukoba, Kigoma, Rukwa, Zanzibar to mention but a few.

Hon. Jakaya Kikwete, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation officially opened the festival on 10th September. The keynote address was provided by Ms. Laurah Harrison Bachnak, Deputy Regional Deputy Regional Coordinator, Women and Law In Southern Africa Research and Education Trust (WLSA), based in Zimbabwe. Hon. Kikwete also opened the Gender Exhibition, where two new TGNP publications in Swahili were launched. Each day was opened by a plenary session, while workshops were held in the late morning and every afternoon focused on specific themes. Strategies for the way forward were developed on the last day and shared in the Closing Ceremony. The conference was officially closed by Mama Maria Nyerere.

This broad and diverse audience combined with quality speakers and participatory methodology provided a key opportunity for like-minded actors from a range of settings inside and outside the country to share strategies and experiences, build linkages, exchange ideas and views on pertinent issues, and challenge and inspire each other to build towards transformative approaches to challenge impoverishment.

The success of the conference can be attributed in part to the commitment of the organizing team and the range of support that the conference attracted. The conference was organized by TGNP and FemAct actors along with like-minded friends and partners, in a process that began in December 1999. This organizing team was joined by a larger team of TGNP and FemAct actors and networkers to enable effective implementation and facilitation of the conference. 

A number of donor partners also supported the conference in various ways. First, TGNP's donor partners who have contributed to TGNP's 3-year plan of Action under a Basket Funding arrangement, who are Hivos, CORDAID, and Misereor. A number of institutions and organisations also contributed to TGNP and our Intermediary Gender Networks to sponsor various aspects of the Gender Festival, primarily to support participants from up-country. These include the DFID Civil Society Program administered by CARE-Tanzania, SNV-Tanzania, SNV- Pamoja, the British Council, APSO, SAT, CIDA, the Gatsby Trust and others who provided in-kind support to various aspects of the Festival. Various institutions that sponsored the participation of delegations of their staff and partners from Dar es Salaam, up-country and the region. These include Irish Aid, CARE Hujakwama Project, PLAN International, UNDP, SNV-Kenya, SNV-Uganda and no doubt others.

The festival's high evaluation demonstrates the success of the conference. 84% of conference participants ranked the conference high or very high in the extent to which the content was organized and facilitated to meet the objectives. Among the burning issues identified were issues of impoverishment, gender budgeting, the impact of globalisation on poor countries, and HIV/AIDS. Participants also provided a number of useful suggestions for the way forward.

More information on the conference, including some of the key conference papers and pictures, has been posted. Further information, including the main conference outputs and outcomes, and strategies developed for the way forward will be posted shortly. A full conference report will be compiled before the end of the year and excerpts will also be posted on the web-site. Should you need any other information about the festival, please do not hesitate to contact us. 

We encourage all to start making preparations to attend the 2003 Gender Festival! No doubt it will be another event that you will not want to miss.

Gender, Democracy, and Development:
Transformative Approaches to Challenge Impoverishment

Gender Festival Organisers
Tanzania Gender Networking Programme (TGNP), the co-ordinator and overall organiser of the conference, is a non-governmental organisation advocating for social transformation that includes gender equality and equity, equal opportunities, and access to and control over resources by women and other marginalised groups. The organisation works to build a vibrant and strong civil society that can contribute towards achieving a developed society with high sensitivity to issues of gender, democracy, human rights and social justice. TGNP has built itself into an effective pressure group that promotes activism for gender transformation and social justice at different levels.

The Feminist Activist Coalition (FemAct), partners in planning and implementation of the conference, is a coalition of over 25 non-governmental organisations that has been working for social change in Tanzania and beyond since 1996. The coalition aims to set, strategize, and implement a collective civil society agenda for progressive and gender-focused transformation of economic, social and political policies, processes, and programmes. 

What is Gender Festival?
The Gender Festival is an open forum for like-minded individuals and organisations to come together share experiences, knowledge, build capacity and plan collectively for social transformation with a gender perspective. This four-day event integrates academics, activism, and art with effective results. The main goal of the conference each year is to bring together people interested in gender from all walks of life, from the villages of Tanzania to other parts of the world, for the purposes of activism and information sharing on a particular issue. Originally, the event was held annually, but since 1999 has been organised every other year in order to allow more time for follow-up actions and preparation for the next conference.

Flashback to Gender Festivals throughout the years:

1996
The 1996 Gender Festival was the first of its kind to be organised by TGNP, registering over 400 people from nearly every region of Tanzania and some from outside the country representing different NGOs, CBOs, and Development agencies. The main objectives of the event were: to build capacity in social gender analysis; to create a forum for the exchange of experiences, knowledge on various development and democratic issues; to network and build collective lobby and advocacy activities. The general theme on: "Gender, Democracy and Development" was chosen as a guiding slogan for the Gender Festival.

1997
The 1997 Festival/ Conference focused on social issues. "Gender Equality and Equity in Resources Allocation, Particularly on Land, Education, Health and other Social Sectors." The conference aimed to influence land reforms that were taking place during that period and to launch the Gender Budgeting Initiative (GBI), a programme advocating for gender equality and equity in resource allocation and decision making. The conference attracted more than 500 active participants to the four days of the Conference. 
1998 
The Festival focused on "Coalition Building and Networking" as a tool for empowerment and social transformation. The theme was selected to highlight the relationship among civil society organisations as well as their interface with the government to promote development, gender equality, and social transformation. 

1999
Conferences was again successfully organised in September 1999 with the theme "Gender and Political Empowerment in the New Millennium." The conference attracted more than 600 participants with even greater participants from the Region and beyond than in previous years. The participation of local level organisations (from the IGNs, districts and regions) and men and women political leaders (Councillors and Members of Parliament) noticeably increased.

Abstracts of Sub-themes

Challenging Macro-Economic and Institutional Frameworks from a Gender Perspective: The Struggle for Social and Economic Justice

What are the ways in which international and regional macro-economic frameworks impact on the lives of various social groups through promoting impoverishment at various levels?  These include globalisation and policies and frameworks of the IMF, World Bank, EU-ACP, SADC, and bi-lateral donors.  What alternative paradigm can be proposed?  How can civil society form effective coalitions at national, regional and international level to devise, present and advocate for an alternative and gender transformative agenda?

Role of Civil Society and Gender Activists in Advocacy and Action for Social, Political and Economic Transformation to Eliminate Impoverishment

What is the role of civil society organisations and gender activists vis-à-vis national governments in creating people and gender oriented macro-frameworks, programmes and policies to end impoverishment? How do they ensure that their platforms are representative of the views and needs of disadvantaged and marginalised men, women and youth?  What strategies can be used to lobby for their perspectives to be effectively integrated into national policy frameworks and inform the implementation in a transformative manner?  What examples can be provided of successful advocacy by civil society or grassroots communities with concrete impacts for challenging impoverishment in the region and beyond?  What kind of response is demanded from government and donors to ensure that perspectives of communities and citizens that are channelled through structures outside the state shape the development vision upon which national policies, budget allocation and development programmes are founded? 

Gender and Resource Mobilisation, Allocation, and Utilisation to Eliminate Impoverishment

How can frameworks, policies and practices at all levels be transformed to ensure that resources at the international, national and local levels meet the development needs of various groups within communities, especially those who because of their gender, age and social strata are currently marginalised?  This includes an examination of people-oriented budgets focusing on gender budgeting, women’s budgeting, children’s budgeting and popular democracy and good governance at local, and central government structures.  What are alternative approaches to enable the local community to own and manage the budget process right from resource mobilisation to allocation and utilisation?  How can budgeting strategies take into account power relations of stakeholders in relation to gender, age and class?  How effective and viable are these as strategies for combating structural impoverishment and what results have they had to date?

Transforming Governance to Promote People-Centred Development and Gender Equality for Elimination of Impoverishment

To what extent are current national and local governments – reformed or otherwise- meeting social development and gender equality objectives? In what ways does the patriarchal culture entrenched in policy-making structures marginalise certain groups and thwart efforts to eliminate impoverishment?  What are the major gaps and trends in relation to women in decision-making, gender-transformative civic education, good governance, and gender-sensitive policy-making?  What examples are there in the region and beyond to transform governance structures and policies into vehicles for the promotion of economic justice?  What strategies can be effective in forging a partnership between government and civil society to create gender-sensitive and pro-poor governance structures and practices?

HIV/AIDS and the Future of the Nation

What is the interrelationship between impoverishment, gender and HIV/AIDS?  How are impoverishment, class and patriarchal gender relations contributing to and impacted by the epidemic?  In what ways are different social groups being affected differentially?  What are the specific interests and needs of impoverished peoples, especially women and youth, in relation to this epidemic?  What strategies have been effective in addressing these linkages?  How can policies, programmes and frameworks aimed at addressing impoverishment and HIV/AIDS be transformed to address the root causes of the problems and their causative relationships?  What should be the way forward for HIV/AIDS campaigns at the local, national and regional/ international levels centring on gender relations, sexuality and economic rights with a focus on people’s right to a future with dignity?

Economic, Social and Cultural Rights for Sustainable Livelihoods

Within frameworks of economic rights and social justice, what rights do women and men citizens have to a life without impoverishment?  These include fundamental human rights otherwise known as first second and third generation rights as stipulated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other subsequent international and regional treaties and conventions.  In what ways does the prevailing international and national policy environment and economic framework contribute to the denial of rights to sustainable livelihoods the majority of working people living in developing nations?  How can rights discourse be utilised as a mechanism to lobby governments and international institutions to give way to popular demand to transform macro-economic frameworks that further marginalise the poor and accentuate unequal power relations poor and disadvantaged social groups?  In what ways can citizens and communities acting on their own behalf ensure the achievement of various forms of human and citizenship rights and enhance on-going processes to transform rural communities into centres for sustainable development?

The Challenge of and for Youth and other Dis-empowered Groups: Building a Better Tomorrow

Within the context of globalisation and patriarchal culture, laws and practices, how are different groups, especially young people, women and men, being marginalised by current development strategies and programmes and cultural laws and practices? What examples are there in the region and beyond of ways in which social groups at different levels are challenging systemic disempowerment?  What issues and strategies can be used to form effective and long-term coalitions to advocate for transformative policies, programmes and culture for an equitable society?

Moving Towards Gender Transformative Approaches for Eradication of Impoverishment

What are the gender gaps, opportunities and trends in existing national strategies and processes to eradicate impoverishment?  What strategies can government and civil society actors utilise to develop policies and programmes that are participatory, pro-poor and gender sensitive?  What examples are there of ‘best practices’ and alternative models in the region and beyond of effective strategies to challenge impoverishment?  What mechanisms can be implemented to ensure information sharing and networking nationally, regionally and internationally, to advocate for alternative gender-transformative models on an on-going basis?
