Message: [QUOTE="Queen, post: 84502, member: 27"] Tanzania is sending a crew to Rwanda to figure out how families there handle violence prevention. Deputy Permanent Secretary Abeida Rashid is leading the group that includes people from the Ministry of Community Development, Gender, Women, and Special Groups, their Zanzibar counterparts, the Prime Minister's Office for local government, and World Bank reps. They stopped by the Tanzanian Embassy to check in with Ambassador Habibu Kambanga before diving into the research trip. The whole mission's about learning Rwanda's community-level tactics for stopping violence at home. Felister Mdemu came along as another Deputy Permanent Secretary, and the delegation packed in department heads Badru Abdunuru from Gender Development and Victor Nkya from Policy and Planning. Project coordinators from the PAMOJA initiative tagged along to scope out what Rwanda's doing differently. Back in Tanga, the regional police boss has been freaking out about kids getting hurt. Senior Assistant Commissioner Almachius Muchunguzi pointed out that the adults the children know are usually the ones beating them up or worse. Domestic situations and neighborhood revenge attacks keep putting minors in danger, and the pattern's getting nastier. Muchunguzi's cops ramped up patrols around homes, parks, and hangout spots where kids spend time. They're trying to catch problems early and jump on reports fast. But he admitted that badges and cruisers can't fix everything, and parents need to step up with the broader community to actually protect children. [/QUOTE]
