| dc.description.abstract | This study analyses the implementation of article 121 of the Treaty for the Establishment of the East African Community, 1999 (hereinafter referred to as the EAC Treaty) in Tanzania with specific address to women's access to property rights. Tanzania's call under the EAC Treaty to eliminate legislation, customs and practices that are discriminatory against women and such other related prejudices that create inequality of gender in the country (including impediments to women's access to property rights) is placed concurrently with other EAC Partner states. However, there are several legal, practical and institutional challenges that diminish the fulfilment of Tanzania's obligation under article 121 of the EAC Treaty as reflected in the first chapter of the study. There are policies and legislation both at the EAC and Partner States' level reflecting Partner States' obligation under article 121 of the EAC Treaty. Among other things, such frameworks address women's access to property rights as reflected in chapter two of the study. In Tanzania, there exists in place ministries, Governmental departments and institutions designed for implementation of such policies and legislation complimented by non-governmental bodies. The aforementioned bodies have devised some initiatives to meet the Government's obligations under article 121 of the EAC Treaty as discussed in chapter three of the study. Challenges encountering such initiatives have also been addressed in the same chapter. Chapter four of this dissertation contains viable standpoints and recommendations to overcome the identified challenges such as prioritizing the issue of women's access to property rights through policy, legal and institutional arrangements. | en_US |
