Abstract | An examination of the employment market in Tanzania highlights profound differences in the competencies and skills of individuals who have graduated from the local schools from those who have graduated from international schools. Although Tanzania had achieved nearly universal access to primary education by 2007, enrollment of primary school-age children has been decreasing. This article describes how Meadows Academy founders Mohamedarif Suleman and his wife Gulbanu M. Suleman initiated a community service cum capacity-building project at a low scale with the vision of reaching out to underprivileged children who are unable to access a quality learning at early years, selecting and nurturing them in an optimal approach so that the necessary development areas can be supported. To bolster this work, the Uhuru Walk was born in 2014 (Uhuru means freedom, or independence, in Swahili) to mobilize and solicit business and community support for improving the state of early childhood education in families with low-income status or for children affected by fatal illnesses, such as cancer.
