| dc.description.abstract | This study examined the prospects of promotion and protection of human rights in Tanzania by the Commission for Human Rights and Good Governance. The purpose of the study was to investigate the provisions of law providing for the structure and mandate of the Commission and examine the willingness of the government to comply with human rights regime in the endeavour to ensure promotion and protection of human rights in the country. Information was collected through library research where review of literature and published works was conducted. Unstructured interview administered among experts and informed persons on human rights was also used in this study. The findings of the study show that most of provisions of law providing for establishment of the Commission inhibit promotion and protection of human rights. Furthermore, the provisions grant many powers to the executives that are intended to deny the commission its independence during the performance of its duties. We can therefore, hardly expect that the commission will be an effective and efficient tool. On the basis of the findings, it is recommended that in order far the Commission to work effectively and successfully, there should be a clear pronouncement of the provisions of law that undermine its freedom during the performance of its duties of promotion and protection of human rights. | en_US |
