Master's Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Gender Studies, grade: A, University of Pavia, language: English, abstract: Gender inequality and structural poverty grip Tanzania, a country situated in the Sub Saharan Africa. The UNDP report 2015 notes that, Tanzania ranks 125 out of 155 countries in the Gender Inequality Index with a rating of 0.547. This reality has marred the progress of women, resultantly having a negative impact on the country's development. This study critically examines this inequality and how that has had a regressive effect on Tanzania's development.In this quest, a review of international, regional and local pieces of legislation on women rights will therefore be necessary. This will help in establishing the legal instruments that Tanzania is signatory to, and how far she has gone in implementing them, and whether she has taken any aggressive measures to translate theory into practice in promoting and safeguarding women rights.It is this researcher's hope that data gathered will reveal how women play a crucial role in a country's development hence deserving to be given equal opportunities as their male counterparts.The research will apply a human rights based approach methodology critically reviewing secondary sources as well as the use of questionnaires and a focus group discussion.
