Lifelong LearningThe Basis of our Strategy
• The idea of Lifelong Learning is not new. Infact, it has endured throughout humanexistence. However, it has not been appliedsystematically as a paradigm with which toorganize all education and training throughoutlife.
• Lifelong learning reflects all contexts in lifefrom a life wide, life-deep and lifelongperspective, it includes learning behaviours,obtaining knowledge, understanding, attitudes,values and competences for personal growth,social and economic well-being, democraticcitizenship, cultural identity and employability.
• Lifelong learning can be defined as acontinuous process based on the following fourpillars: learning to do, to know, to be and tolive together. It has been suggested that anadditional pillar may be added: learning tochange and to take risks (Ouane, 2008).
• The concept of a learning society can apply to anation as a whole, as well as to communities,regions, provinces and villages. In fact, alearning nation would comprise a range oflearning societies at all levels, down to thesmallest community, and even to the level of ahousehold.
• The two fundamental pillars of a learningsociety (Walters, 2009) are economic growthand social cohesion.
Despite the fact that non-formal and adult education has existed for some time in Tanzania, in thecontinent and in the world they are still considered a low priority by governments and most othereducation actors. Their current status remains inferior to that of formal education in many aspects,although they contribute significantly to socio-economic development, particularly for marginalizedgroups and communities. Calls for improvement in non-formal and adult education are evident.
• Strong linkages between formal education, non-formal education and informal learning systemsare necessary for sustainable development, toensure participation by citizens in current social,economic and political life.
• Sustainable development is a continually evolvingconcept. One of the original descriptions ofsustainable development is attributed to theBrundtland Commission: “Sustainabledevelopment is development that meets theneeds of the present without compromising theability of future generations to meet their ownneeds” (World Commission on Environment andDevelopment, 1987, p. 43). Sustainabledevelopment is generally thought to have threecomponents – environment, society and economy– while sustainability is a paradigm for thinkingabout a future in which environmental, societaland economic considerations are balanced in thepursuit of development and improved quality oflife (UNESCO, 2006, p. 10). Culture is sometimessuggested as a fourth component of sustainabledevelopment, referring to ethical values andrespect for human rights and diverse cultures asan important foundation for sustainabledevelopment (UNEP, 2004).
“Elimu Haina Mwisho – Lifelong Learning forSustainable Development; the basis on whichKTO’s strategy (2018-2022) has been founded”.

KTO at a Glance
• According to Professor Alan Rogers there are three major strands of adult learning programmes,liberal adult education for the self-fulfilment of individuals in their social context; (radical) adulteducation for social transformation and development; and vocational adult education for livelihoodand life skills (Rogers 2010 pp. 3-4). All three strands are present at all times (as in a woven rope)but one or other strand will tend to predominate at certain times. From this report, the roles ofFDCs can be described as Adult Education, Vocational Training and Community Development.
• Karibu Tanzania Organization (‘KTO’) is a national level Non-Governmental Organization workingas an umbrella organization for the Folk Development Colleges (‘FDCs’) in Tanzania.
• KTO was established 1990 as a result of cooperation between Tanzania and Sweden through FolkDevelopment Colleges in Tanzania and Swedish Folk High Schools. KTO is working with all 55 FDCsin Tanzania. Together with the FDCs, KTO has a long experience of folk education, adult learning,pedagogical work, rural development and have been providing training for young adults all overTanzania.
• KTO works closely with the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, but also with otherrelated ministries and with national and international partners. KTO has a nationwide networkthat has the capacity to reach out to many people through collaboration with FDCs. KTO ispolitically and religiously independent. The board of directors, chosen at the annual meeting,governs the organization. KTO has a secretariat with employed staff members dealing with day-to-day activities.
• FDCs were established in 1975 as part of functional literacy programmes which was the thirdphase of the Adult Education Programmes.
• The majority of the FDCs are operating in rural areas and their primary mission is to provide accessto training in areas relevant to their local communities. This training consists of vocational trainingand general knowledge such as entrepreneurship, life skills, civic education, and communicationskills. Training involves personal development, strengthening capacity for the participants toacquire new knowledge, developing skills to acquire formal employment or self-employment, andcontinuing their studies after completing the courses.
Who we work with
Who we are
FDCs are at one and the same time:a) vocational training centres;b) b) adult education institutions, contributing to the continuing education and lifelong learning
of adults in their immediate context; andc) c) Folk Development Colleges, contributing to the social and economic development of the
national and their local communities.

Executive Summary
According to the National Bureau of Statistics (‘NBS’), Tanzania has a population of more than 52
million as of 2017 with more than 60% of the population being youths aged between 25 and 45 years.
Females constitute more than 50% of the Tanzanian population. Tanzanian ranks 159 out of 187
countries in terms of human development index hitting 0.488. National economic growth averaging
7% for the past decade has not translated into improving the living conditions for the poor and the
situation is especially acute in rural and peripheral areas where more than 80% of Tanzanians live.
The distinctive features of the FDCs which mark them off from VTCs, Adult Education (AE) centres and
Community Development (CD) centres, features which may be lost if the FDCs become identified
solely as VET centres, need to be identified. The Alan Rogers’ report suggests these features include
The hybrid nature of the FDCs as combining the above three roles in one. KTO together with other
related and interested stakeholders are working together with the Government of Tanzania to
safeguard the interests of the public in FDCs and to retain, maintain and even develop further the
essence and meaning of FDCs especially with the fact that, KTO and FDCs are working in support of
the SDGs and the national industrialization policy intending to turn the Tanzanian economy into the
middle income economy.

Country Overview
• The United Republic of Tanzania is a sovereign state in
eastern Africa within the African Great Lakes region. It
borders Kenya and Uganda to the north; Rwanda, Burundi,
and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west;
Zambia, Malawi, and Mozambique to the south; and the
Indian Ocean to the east.
• Tanzania is a united republic formed by Tanzania Mainland
(known as Tanganyika until 1964) and Zanzibar. Tanganyika
obtained her independence from Great Britain in December
1961, and Zanzibar obtained her independence in December
1963 as an Arab constitutional monarchy.
• The Arab sultanate was overthrown
in a people-led revolution in January
1964. The two countries formed a
union on 26th April 1964, becoming
the united republic of Tanzania.
• The United Nations estimated
Tanzania's 2016 population at 55.57
million. The population is composed
of several ethnic, linguistic, and
religious groups.
• Tanzania has sustained relatively
high economic growth over the last
decade, averaging 6–7% a year. But
while the poverty rate in the country
has declined, the absolute number of
poor has not because of the high
population growth rate.
• About 80 per cent of those living in
rural areas engage in agriculture and
livestock for their livelihood and
economic survival, The Tanzanian
economy is heavily based on
agriculture, which in 2013 accounted
for 24.5 percent of gross domestic
product provides 85% of exports and
accounted for half of the employed
workforce.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 10| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Strategic Context
• The right to education for adults is a fundamental human right in itself but also a precondition for
the realization of other rights. Today many are denied this right. According to the latest EFA
report (Education for All) 775 million adult lack the ability to read, most of them women. This is a
major obstacle for people living in poverty to be able to change their life situation and to have
influence in society.
• In many countries, adult education is marginalized. There is weak legislation, lack of structures,
institutions and organizations and very little public financing. Civil societies can play a crucial role
to change this through advocating the right of education for all, even adults, and to showcase
good examples.
• Children, youth, and adults in Tanzania have limited access to information, education and training,
resulting in increased unemployment, poverty, the spread of HIV/AIDS, socio-economic
frustration, gender imbalance, as well as crime, drug, and alcohol abuse. A large percentage of
children never complete their primary and secondary education and the illiteracy rate for adults is
today at a miserable 23 percent (Age 15 years and above). There are approximately 3.5 million out
of School children and youth who are not receiving education. Population growth, challenges in
Literacy campaigns and under investment in adult education have contributed to this tepid
progress. Tanzania has the tenth largest youth population globally. With 66% under the age of 25
already, and the figure set to rise significantly, understanding young people and their situation is
critical in Tanzania. Young people are most affected making up 53.3% of the unemployed
population of Tanzania, and it is likely that this figure will rise as the youth population grows. Little
attention is paid to the needs and rights of the majority of youth and young adults. Many youth
and young adults do not know their rights and lack the tools to claim them. Adolescent Girls and
Young Women (AGYW) are facing different challenges in the society. AGYW’s educational
attainment level has been proven to have a crucial positive influence on social, economic, and
health spheres both for individual women and for society in general, but Tanzanian society suffers
from large gender disparities that restrict the accessibility and availability of basic services for
AGYW.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 11| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Strategic Context
• One in three women in Tanzania lack basic Functional Literacy skills, and only 18% of young
women aged 20-24 years have completed secondary school versus 27% of young men. Tanzania
has one of the highest adolescent pregnancy rates in the world, and dropout rates due to
pregnancy in Tanzania are alarming, with 8,000 girls dropping out of school every year.
Education Landscape
− Historical Background of Folk and Adult Education
• When Tanganyika became independent in 1961, the country had a population of 14 million, but
only 70 people had academic education (Vestlund, G. 2011). Of the adult population, 80-90%
were illiterate (Sallnäs, 1969). The school system was structured according to English patterns and
aimed to train single cuff workers in the service of the colonial power.
• When President Nyerere presented in a speech to Parliament the first five-year plan in 1964, he
said: "We must start educating the adult part of the population. Our children will not have any
significance for development until five, ten or twenty years. "(Albinsson, 2002, p. 65) Tanzania
conducted a near-unique parallel focus on adult and youth education, in line with Cuba and
Ghana. When Tanzania asked for assistance in building up adult education, the Swedish
International development Agency (‘Sida’) responded positively There was a strong political will in
Tanzania to support adult education and an administration was built for a large-scale adult
education program. Government and donor countries, as well as private sources, earmarked
money.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 12| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Strategic Context
• The alphabetization campaign was the first step of three in the focus on adult education. The next
step was to give readers the opportunity to practice their reading and writing skills through the
establishment of libraries and local newspapers in the countryside, radio programs and films
(Olsson, 1994). The alphabetization campaign was very successful and illiteracy decreased from
67% 1970 to 27% in 1977 (Rydström, 1996, 78). Step three in the adult education program was to
become the establishment of Folk Development Colleges, FDCs, with the Nordic Folk High Schools
as the inspiration (Holmqvist, 2007). FDCs were established in 1975 as part of functional literacy
programmes which was the third phase of the Adult Education Programmes.
• Professor Alan Rogers at the University of Nottingham (UK) has followed the FDCs development
over the years. In 2017 Alan Rogers compiled on the basis of visits to Tanzania and Sweden in
2017 the report Learning for change: Tanzania’s Folk Development Colleges in transition (report
by professor Alan rogers, University of Nottingham, UK, May 2017).
• Parts of his report is presented below as to show the progress and development of the FDCs
during the years.
− Background
• The FDCs were established, at the personal request of President Nyerere, jointly by the Ministry of
Education (MoE1) and the Swedish aid agency SIDA in 1975, and based on the Scandinavian Folk
High School (FHS) tradition, the Folk Development Colleges (FDCs) were supported financially by
SIDA for twenty-one years, an unusual feature of international development assistance.
• Unlike the FHSs, they were government-owned institutions, and were renamed Folk
Development Colleges to stress their commitment to local and national development plans.
• Although originally seen as a part of the national adult education programme, they formed a
distinct sector in Tanzania’s educational portfolio, separate from, and yet containing features of,
the other three sectors, adult education, vocational training and community development; thus
the term ‘Folk Education’ entered into educational policy debates.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 13| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Strategic Context
− Programs
• During the period of SIDA’s assistance (1975-96), the 52 FDCs became embedded within their local
communities and developed a group identity which marked them off from other sectors. They
were transferred from MoE to the Ministry of Community Development (MCD), with an increased
stress on their community development role. Their programme consisted (and stills consists) of
long courses (one or two year mainly residential, mainly vocational training), short courses on and
off campus, outreach activities, self-reliance projects and a number of special activities. A key
distinguishing feature of the FDCs is that, unlike other post-school education establishments, there
are no required entry conditions - anyone can go, even primary school ‘drop-outs’. As a result, the
FDCs provided their own certification of attainment rather than a nationally recognised certificate
(though some use City and Guilds).
• 1996-2016: On the ending of SIDA’s direct assistance, it was feared the sector would collapse but
it did not; it even grew slightly from 52 to 55 FDCs. The government from time to time continued
some support but on the whole the colleges were encouraged to fend for themselves. Costs were
cut, on staff and especially on buildings and outreach activities; income came mainly from
students’ fees, and each FDC was free to explore other fundraising possibilities including other
donors. Swedish assistance continued to individual FDCs from individual FHSs. Short courses
continued but were mainly provided by other agencies using the sites (and at times the staff) of
the FDCs.
− Karibu Tanzania Organization
• During this period of relative freedom, the sector developed greater coherence. At the heart of
this trend was (and is) the Karibu Tanzania Association (KTA), now Karibu Tanzania Organisation
(KTO). This provides a link between all the 55 FDCs, and provides a voice to the sector. It has
strong links with the FHSs, Swedish supporters of the FDCs. It works very closely with MCD,
especially on shared issues such as gender education and practices.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 14| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Strategic Context
− VETA and FDCs
• Links between the FDCs and VETA were developed. Established in 1995, VETA grew in influence
with government support as more and more emphasis was placed in Tanzanian policy circles on
skills for development. VETA came to see itself as the sole body co-ordinating all Vocational
Education and Training (VET) in the country, whether provided by government, commercial
interests or voluntary bodies; there are over 800 vocational training centres in the country, the
very large majority offered by private interest groups or faith-based groups; only some 35 VTCs
are directly government-owned, at present under VETA. Although outside this system, some FDCs
became centres where VETA trade tests were taken; consequently increasing numbers of students
on long vocational courses in the FDCs came to request that they be allowed to take VETA courses.
This had started by 2003 and was officially recognised by MCD in 2013.
• BY 2015-16, nearly half of the FDCs offer only VETA long courses , others offer what has come to
be called Folk Education courses; a few offer both.
− The move to the mainstream
• All of this went on, as it were, below the radar: the FDCs, being a very small sector and separate
from the mainstream, were largely ignored in national policy debates. But as government
pressure for skills development programmes for school-leavers increased, so attention was turned
to the FDCs. A first report on them was compiled in 2000, and from that year government funding
was increased. The World Bank commissioned a report in 2003 and from then interest in the FDCs
grew. By 2011, when the Education Sector Analysis was drawn up, it was being urged that the
sector, still seen as a separate entity, should be moved back to MoE (this time to the Directorate
of Vocational Training); a decision to that effect was made in 2016, and it was implemented (in
part) in February 2017.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 15| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Strategic Context
− Policy Framework
• UN has just adopted targets for global sustainable development that will be valid until 2030.
Agenda 2030 is a holistic approach for sustainable development, ecologically, socially and
economically. It has global legitimacy and can be a momentum for the right to education for adults.
• Tanzania envisions becoming a middle-income country by 2025 and has put in place a number of
policy frameworks to realise this vision. The Education Sector Development Plan (ESDP) (2016/17 –
2020/21) is built on the priorities of the Tanzanian Government as set out in the Tanzania
Development Vision 2025, the National Five-Year Development Plan 2016/17-2020/21 and the
Education and Training Policy of 2014. The two key policy initiatives that distinguish this ESDP from
previous plans are: (1) Tanzania’s commitment to providing eleven years of free and compulsory
Basic Education to the entire population, leaving no one behind; and (2) the progressive expansion
of Technical and Vocational Education and Training to provide Tanzania with the pool of skilled
human resources needed to advance to becoming a semi-industrialized middle-income country by
2025.
• The National Strategy for Inclusive Education is thus aimed at strengthening the education system
to provide, in an equitable manner, learning opportunities for all children, adolescents and youth,
including vulnerable groups, and enable them to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to
contribute to the transformation of Tanzania into a middle income and semi-industrialized nation
by 2025.
• To achieve this the National Strategy for Inclusive Education pays particular attention to
excluded groups, children with disabilities, out-of-school children and children at risk, particularly
boys repeating grades, teenage girls and students who completed Standard 7 and who should
transit to lower Secondary.
• Reaching the excluded and marginalized groups and providing them with quality education requires
the development and implementation of inclusive policies and programmes. This Strategy
promotes an inclusive education system that removes the barriers limiting the
participation and achievement of all learners, that respects diverse needs, abilities and
characteristics and that eliminates all forms of discrimination in the learning environment.

Success Story
KTO has developed both organizationally and autonomously as an umbrella organization with
renewed constitution, developed steering documents, conducted annual meetings and has managed
to unify all FDCs in Tanzania even despite how scattered these FDCs are all over the vast country of
Tanzania, some located in remote areas with poor infrastructure and accessibility difficulties. For
about eight years now, KTO has grown and developed from being an organization run by just
voluntary work with programmes involving a few FDCs and with only a few partners into an NGO
with a wider network of national and international partners, with programmes involving more FDCs
and with a secretariat constituting of employed personnel.
Together with its members and partners, KTO has advocated for the FDCs existence as unique
institutions, designed, rolled-out and implemented many different programmes such as: -
Role task and vision of FDCs
KTO has been standing up for the original vision, role and task of the FDCs as described by professor
Alan Rogers to mean “FDCs being at one and the same time:
a. Vocational Training Centres;
b. Adult Education Institutions, contributing to the continuing education and lifelong learning of
adults in their immediate context; and
c. Folk Development Colleges, contributing to the social and economic development of the national
and their local communities.
MoEST has decided to go back to the original vision for the FDC working with Adult learning, Folk
education, Community development and Vocational training in which context FDCs will target
marginalized groups and act as an alternative pathway for participants who dropped out from the
formal school system. The ministry stresses the importance of community relevant courses and
has given the tasks to FDCs to now work with and close to the surrounding communities in their
needs for training. KTO has had more dialogue meetings with the MoEST and the Ministry of
Community Development, Gender, Elders and Children in this regard which is an invaluable
achievement.
MoEST has agreed on programme collaboration with KTO as the implementing partner in various
programmes.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 17| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Success Story
FDCs as training institutions
In order to strengthen the quality of course
delivery, KTO in collaboration with the
Institute of Adult Education (‘IAE’) and the
Tanzania Teachers Union (‘TTU’), has
developed and conducted a distance diploma
course in adult and continuing education for
FDC teachers.
KTO has lobbied for review of curriculum,
Swahili as language of instruction, and for
FDCs to have authority to administer exams to
participants using the Swahili and if passing
the course get a national recognized
certificate.
The MoEST will review the curriculum for FDCs
as far as FDCs. As of now, the MoEST has
decided all training to be delivered in Swahili
and all FDCs will provide training which will
give the participants a national recognized
certificate.
Lobby for Secondary Education in the non
formal system delivered at FDCs
KTO has during the years stressed for the importance
of including secondary education in the non formal
education system at the FDCs in collaboration with the
IAE to create alternative pathways for out of school
young adults. The realized achievements are: -
MoEST decided that all FDCs will be centres
providing secondary education in the non-formal
setting at each FDC under the supervision of IAE;
KTO is the implementing partner in a joint program
together with MoEST targeting young women who
have for different reasons dropped out of school (
Elimu haina Mwisho-Skills Development program for
Young women through FDCs). In this program KTO is
collaborating with IAE to deliver secondary
education combined with the vocational training,
life skills and entrepreneurship.
KTO together with IAE deliver capacity building for
FDC teachers.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 18| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Success Story
FDCs as Platforms for citizen engagement
In the strategic plan the approach in this area was to develop the Community Resource and
Information centres (CRICs) and to start up short courses in Training for Active participation in Media
Arenas.
As mentioned above about FDCs task and role in the society which is to foster active responsible
and engaged citizens. KTO have managed to keep the Community Resource and Information
Centres (CRICs) vision alive at some FDCs without any funding. FDCs and has I introduced and
implemented a new short course program active participation in media arenas at 5 FDCs with a
collaboration with Union of Tanzania's Press Clubs (UTPC) and their press clubs. The Media course
is continuing at 4 FDCs. KTO also succeeded to perform well together with Femina Hip in a
community dialogue project for a peaceful election 2015, a method and approach that is now in
cooperated in all KTOs program.
FDCs as Platform promoting gender equality
In KTO’s previous strategic plan, KTO included a focus on young women’s socio and economic
empowerment and a focus on strengthening their rights and opportunities to be self-employed,
employed by others, or to continue to further their education.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 19| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Success Story
FDCs as Platform promoting gender equality (continued)
KTO has succeeded to develop its Mama Course program to a greater program for Young Women
who of different reasons have dropped out of the formal school system. The program Elimu haina
Mwisho Skills Development Program for Young Women through FDCs. The program is a
collaboration together with MoEST with KTO as the implementing partner, a great achievement. A
new partner collaboration with Aflatoun a Dutch NGO in collaboration with MasterCard
foundation will support the program to reach out to 20 FDCs next year. KTO expect other partners
to be involved and hope to implement the program at 25- 30 FDCs next year.
KTO has succeeded in its approach to make it possible for young mothers to study at FDCs to
develop infra structure of day care centres.
A new initiative is to increase day care and pre-primary teachers in the field of Early Childhood
Development (‘ECD’) In collaboration with Teachers Training Colleges. KTO will start up pre-
primary teachers training at 20 FDCs and in the same time build up the infra structure for Day care
Centres and Preschools at the FDCs. It is a collaboration project between Aflatoun but with MoEST
integrating the program in the ministries activities.

Success Story
Mpira Fursa Tanzania Women Football
KTO and the Tanzania Football Federation (‘TFF’), will cooperate to develop and conduct a
programme promoting women and girls football development and to promote gender equality and
socio-economic empowerment. To begin with, football courses have been rolled out and implements
at several FDCs during the outgoing strategic plan.
The programme has been implemented at 27 FDCs with football activities at the surrounding
primary and secondary schools in 18 regions of Tanzania mainland. This programme has been
rolled out and implemented in collaboration with TFF. KTO is facilitating collaboration discussions
with Swedish Football Federation (‘SvFF’). Pia Sundhage, former Swedish football national team
coach visited KTO, TFF and the programme representing SvFF. The MoEST has approved and will
collaborate with KTO as the implementing partner. The Ministry of Information, Culture, Arts and
Sports is also interested in the programme as a means to expose women’s football talents for both
entertainment and employment domestically and internationally.

Success Story
Partner Collaboration
During the past years KTO has worked on developing existing partner relations and looked for new
ones in KTO´s field of interest. A strategy has been to keep and develop close partnerships with
responsible Ministries at central and local government levels as the government is the implementing
partner in KTO’s programmes with FDCs.

2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 23| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Lessons Learnt
Despite the robust and significant achievements KTO has had from the previous strategic plans, there
are challenges and lessons leant in this process. KTO has faced variety of challenges when delivering
its mission and objectives to the FDCs in all the period of its operation since inceptions. On the other
hand, the organization has gained insights through lessons learnt that have been used to create a
more effective and focused way forward in working together with its members and partners.
KTO’s challenges are more less similar to those faced by FDCs in operating their tasks, including a
shortage of teachers and inadequate and old infrastructure, lack of capacity, a lack of leadership
skills, a lack of materials and resources, which affect the outcome of their efforts to serve
communities.
FDCs did not have authority to give accredited exams to their students who used to do vocational
competence based test, but instead depended on VETA to administer these tests (now resolved, see
achievements) .
VETA changed its syllabus to make ENGLISH the medium of training which adversely affects FDCs and
their target groups. Most students and teachers do not have English skills to train and learn in that
language. Exams given in English are a huge barrier to success of the FDCs and their target groups
which then escalates to affect the entire society and the country at large. KTO has lobbied for change
of the syllabus to define the medium of communication to be Swahili so as students and teachers can
be empowered to teach and learn in the native language.
Due to resource scarcity, KTO has only conducted a few programmes involving only a few FDCs. The
quality of the activities has been high and they have all achieved good results and significant impact
for involved members of the affected communities, but it has been a challenge to implement these
successful programmes nationwide given the financial constraints.
KTO plan to focus on a more holistic-programme approach to its work, including more areas linked
together and ones that involve a majority of FDCs.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 24| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Lessons Learnt
Pinpointed out below are key to KTO’s body of knowledge acquired through working with FDCs: -
• KTO has conducted several programs with high quality but reaching out to few FDCs due to lack of
recourses, hence a need of scaling up.
• KTO has realized the importance of external research in the area of folk and adult education with
a focus on FDCs.
• Importance of KTO´s dialogue approach locally, nationally and internationally by putting forward
the importance of Folk and adult education with a focus on the FDCs task and role in the society.
• Given that FDCs are located in the remote and rural areas, KTO has found itself working closely
with the Local Government Authorities (‘LGAs’) hence the decision to develop a strategy on
working with the LGAs.
• KTO has increased its network and collaboration with national and international partners. KTO has
experienced the importance of open and transparent discussions about power relationship, roles
and responsibilities in the partnership.
• The Importance of documentation of the program activities in reaching out to a broader audience
stressing the importance of Folk and adult education as tools for bringing about change in the
society. Furthermore emphasizing FDCs role in providing Folk and Adult Education, Vocational
training and engage in Community development activities.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 25| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
KTO’s Approach
• The Folk and adult education philosophy focuses on making knowledge accessible to people at the
grassroots level and the idea of education should be organized and defined by the needs and
interests of the people and that it should ultimately rest on democratic ideas.
• Using vast experience together with lessons learnt, KTO will include its ongoing initiatives in
combination with developing other focus areas. KTO cooperates closely with national and
international partners, the MoHCDGEC, MoEST and other ministries. Together, all partners are
concerned with scaling up KTO’s work to involve all 55 FDCs in order to reach the goals and targets
in this new strategic plan.
• KTO’s approach focuses on strengthening young adults with a focus on young women’s rights and
opportunities for active citizen engagement. Just as important is helping these young adults
acquire the skills to obtain formal-sector employment, self-employment, or to continue their
education even further.
• KTO’s mission; To develop FDCs as training and learning institutions, institutions promoting gender
equality and as platforms for meaningful citizen engagement focuses on FDC situated all over the
country that are the only institutions providing vocational training, adult education and supporting
community development whereby young adults regardless of their educational background are
accommodated.
• KTO’s approach is to work parallel in three levels: -
Local level KTO together with the FDCs are building institutional capacity, developing courseconcepts, implementing programmes, conducting dialogue and advocating forgender equality, Folk and Adult Education at a community level.
National Level KTO dialogues with Ministries concerned in policy issues, FDCs development andadvocate for the importance of Folk and adult Education and Lifelong Learning forsustainable development
International Level Every one of the SDGs contains explicitly or implicitly adult learning targets. KTO is
therefore networking with partners and other stakeholders in attaining Lifelonglearning, Folk and Adult education as a way to reach the aims of Agenda 2030

STRATEGIC PLAN
2018 - 2022
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 26| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Strategy Planning Process
The highly rated importance of FDCs is to help Tanzania with the achievement of the Sustainable
Development Goals (‘SDGs’) and play the pivotal role in the current country’s industrialization policy
in quest of boosting the country to the middle income economy. Every one of the 17 SDGs contains
explicitly or implicitly adult learning targets; so that every development sector (including but not
limited to health, agriculture, gender, poverty, finance, energy and environment) will need to find
adult learning partners to help them fulfil their goals rather than try to provide their own adult
learning activities.
• Strategy Preparation Process
Below is a summary approach that KTO adopted in preparing its strategic plan for the period from
2018 to 2022.

Review of the outgoing strategy
• In preparing the 2018-2022 strategy, Management of the Organization considered various factors from
both experience and research. These include: -
− The hybrid nature of the FDCs as combining three roles in one (adult learning, community
development and vocational training);
− The FDCs’ concern for social change. FDCs are not only training for jobs but also to help their
participants to become agents for change in the country; for instance, FDCs unlike Vocational
Training Centres (‘VTCs’) and other institutions seek to overcome gender inequalities in
participants and staff recruitment. All FDCs are concerned with gender transformation in the
society as a whole;
− FDCs’ flexibility especially on entry requirements. Unlike VTCs, FDCs are non-selective of
participants entry, and as adult education institutions, they admit some (admitted relatively
few) older adults; and
− The use of the sector as a whole for innovatory active, especially piloting new development
ventures.
• According to a report by Alan Rogers, Learning for Change: Tanzania’s Folk Development Colleges in
Transition; various developments need to be adopted to support the growth of the FDCs and their
primary purposes. Such developments include: -
− The use of the college library facilities in some contexts for adult literacy in partnership with
ICBAE;
− The provision of bridge courses to help those with inadequate school-based skills to access
entry to more formal education programmes.
− The exploration of the implications of the widespread adoption of the new information and
communication technologies (including social media), especially in the informal industrial and
commercial sectors for vocational training.
• The strategy has therefore been developed based on the above and many more factors all targeting
the achievement of more impact on FDCs, and their surrounding communities and the country at large.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 28| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Strategy Planning Process
• Strategic strategy meetings were conducted to analyse the organization’s operational position
both internally and externally and to identify the organization’s key target areas in the incoming
strategic plan spanning from 2018 to 2022.
• Stakeholders here mean critical member of KTO (i.e. FDCs through their principals), board of
directors, and other education related organizations and institutions not forgetting to mention the
Government of the United Republic of Tanzania through its relevant ministries.
• Meetings with representatives from partner organizations in Sweden, Karibu Sweden Association,
Farnebo Folk high School, FOLAC and Linköping's University have also been held to get their
feedback on KTO’s plans ahead and partner collaboration in the new strategic plan.
• The stakeholder strategy meetings resulted into the below summarized SWOT analysis: -

gender equality and socio-economic empowerment for girls and women. It is also a strategy to keep girls
in school and enrol out of school girls and Young women into educational institutions. It will specifically
develop a structure for promoting women and girls’ football which can be applicable in the whole
country. It includes educating female coaches, female referees, female sports administrators and female
sports medicine practitioners. The FDC´s collaborate with primary and secondary schools in the
surrounding FDC´s areas to organize football activities for girls. By creating a safe space for girls and
young women in the field of football, information and dialogue about Sexual Reproductive and Health
Rights will take place. The SRHR component in the program will be developed together with UNESCO.
The program approach will create opportunities for further studies or to bridge young women into
employment in the field of sports.
Mpira Fursa- Integrated Football and Functional Literacy Training
• This proposed initiative, “Mpira Fursa – Integrated Football and Functional Literacy Training target young
women who are in a need of Functional Literacy and post-Functional Literacy education. KTO will use the

literacy initiative. KTO’s method is to take a holistic approach to the challenges facing this group of
young women and provide them with a learning environment to acquire Functional Literacy skills
together with football courses including football training, coaching, refereeing, sports medicine and
sport management, life skills and entrepreneurship. By creating a safe space for young women in the
field of football dialogue, information and dialogue about Sexual Reproductive and Health Rights will
take place. The SRHR component in the program will be developed together with UNESCO.
• The program approach will create opportunities for further studies or to bridge young women into
employment in the field of sports.

Develop KTO’s role in partnering and lobbying for Folk and Adult education nationally,
regionally and internationally
• Agenda 2030 is a holistic approach for sustainable development, ecologically, socially and economically.
It has a global legitimacy and can be a momentum for the right to education for adults and gender
equality. Every one of the 17 Goals contains explicitly or implicitly adult learning targets; so that every
development sector (health, agriculture, gender, poverty, finance, environment, etc.) will need to find
adult learning partners to help them fulfil their goals rather than try to provide their own adult learning
activities. Folk and Adult Education are still considered a low priority for many governments and most
other education actors. Their current status remains inferior to that of formal education in many aspects,
although they contribute significantly to socio-economic development, particularly for marginalized
groups and communities.
• The FDCs, scattered throughout Tanzania, often in unexpected locations, and with substantial assets
(e.g. their sites) are uniquely placed to offer such partnerships nationwide: They can provide across the
country sites and partnerships for the implementation of the SDGs. In this role, access to the whole
sector can be most appropriately obtained through KTO whose role is vital for maintaining and
developing the sector.
• KTO´s approach is to work on a local, National and International level. KTO is an active member in
International Council for Adult Education (‘ICAE’) and through ICAE the organization intends to
strengthen the regional and national network collaboration in the field of adult and folk education.
• KTO is dedicated through this strategic plan to develop the collaboration with Swedish folk high school
through the association with KSA, Färnebo FHS and FOLAC. Maintain active membership in TEN/MET,
collaborate with MoEST to benefit FDCs and the community.

KTO’s Theory of Change
Folk and Adult Education philosophy focuses on making knowledge accessible to people at the
grassroots level and believes strongly in the idea that education should be organized and defined by
the needs and interest of the people and that this should all rest on the firm foundation of
democratic ideas.
Adult education is, in its broadest sense, a process – the process of adult learning. In its more
technical meaning, adult education describes a set of organized activities carried out by a wide
variety of institutions for the accomplishment of specific educational objectives. Another meaning
combines all of these processes and activities into ideas a movement or field of social practice. In this
sense, adult education brings together, into a discrete social system, of all the individuals,
institutions, and an association concerned with the education of adults and helps them to work
towards the common goals of improving the methods and materials of adult learning, extending the
opportunities for adults to learn, and advancing the general level of their cultural understanding.
Folk education encourages learners to examine their lives critically and to take action to change social
conditions. The goal of folk education is to develop people’s capacity for social change through a
collective problem-solving approach emphasizing participation, reflection, and critical analysis of
social problems. Everyone teaches and learns, so leadership is shared. The learning process to create
new knowledge involves learners’ experiences and concerns, a high participation rate, critical
reflection, connecting the local to the global, and fostering collective action for change. A gender
relation is a crucial part of the analysis of power relations and social conditions that take place in folk
education.
Learning is most effective if participation is active, different learning styles are addressed, content is
relevant to learners’ lives, learners are treated equally as equals, and the learning process is
enjoyable.
Folk and adult education views adults as: -
• Internally motivated and self-directed;
• Able to bring life experiences and knowledge to learning experiences;
• Goal oriented;
• Relevancy-oriented;
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 38| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
KTO’s Theory of Change
• Practical; and
• Individuals who enjoy being respected.
KTO strongly believes that the philosophy of adult and folk education embedded in the FDCs’
approach to training and to leading educational activities will lead to lasting and positive change in
society locally, nationally and internationally.

Strategy ImplicationsMonitoring and Evaluation
• KTO is strongly committed to strengthening out ability to create supporting evidence, track and
communicate our lessons learnt and effectiveness of program execution and especially financial
management in the course of delivering the program intended impact. The organization is planning to
place more emphasis on monitoring and evaluation as a way ensure improvement in this area.

maintenance of minimum quality standards and stakeholder feedback mechanism.
• The system shall enable the organization to track progress, assess impact and make any adjustments and
discover unplanned effects of the organization programs.
• Additionally, the system is expected and intended to be a part of the routine program management and
is our critical success factor, among others.
• Above all, the M&E system will instigate the preparation of a robust M&E plan containing a set of
indicators that will be created to allow close monitoring, tracking and documentation of the
developments and changes that are taking place in the education sector.
2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 41| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Strategy ImplicationsFinancing and financial management
• KTO has a fully set up operational system that ensures compliance with a wide array of donor
regulations and requirements. It has well-established financial management system and controls which
have actually managed different grants from different donors while ensuring and maintaining
unqualified audit reports.
• Significant efforts have been made to ensure that the organization is in full financial management
compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards, national laws, rules and regulations not
forgetting appropriate donor requirements.
• KTO adopts and employs an integrated financial and management control systems that ensure
accountability. Our strongly formulated and implemented financial manual guides the financial and
internal control systems that ensure proper and appropriate management of the organization and or
donor resources and assets both at the organization and FDC levels.
• Financial and management data is recorded, reconciled and managed through QUICKBOOKS accounting
software, which enables the capturing, tracking, analysing and reporting of program information by
unique program, sub-program (if any), and funding sources.
• The organization finance department provides sustainable support to program personnel, helping with
compliance requirements and ensuring that any contract management is carried out in an integrated
and cost-effective story.
• KTO incorporates in its financial management techniques, a strong internal controls system to promote
and encourage transparency and accountability.
• KTO’s Executive Director is the topmost person responsible and accountable for the overall financial
management and integrity of the organization’s resources. Responsibility over the individual program

2018|2022 Strategic Plan Page | 42| Lifelong learning for Sustainable Development |
Strategy ImplicationsFunding
• There is unquestionable rise in recognition locally and internationally of KTO’s contribution to adult
education through FDCs as it can be appreciated through the MoEST’s budget for the fiscal year
2018/2019. simultaneously, KTO recognizes the challenges in securing funds from various interested
donors with the same interest and motives in adult education.
• In ensuring that there is adequate resources to implement this plan, KTO will deploy the following
strategies: -
Request the existing donors and or partners to extend their funding commitments for the next fouryears and possibly beyond the strategic plan period.
Strengthen partnerships with national and international partners including intermediaries for jointfunding without compromising our approaches, principles and values Recruit a high calibre Fundraisingor Resource Mobilisation person to work closely with the Executive Director and the managementteam in the implementation of the fundraising strategy.
Develop and implement a robust fundraising strategy which will enable KTO to attract new anddiversified funding streams.
Ensure quality programmes are delivered in a timely fashion and that evidence of impact is collected, collated and reported in order to continue winning support from development partners and citizens.
• Tanzania is in the bottom quartile of the Human Development Index, a situation which is unlikely to
change in the medium term of 5-8 years, and as such the country remains a key recipient of
international funding streams. Furthermore, bilateral and multilateral funders are aligning themselves
with national efforts that are geared towards achieving the SDGs.
• KTO’s new strategy aims at supporting the achievement of the SDG and there is increasing recognition of
our work amongst the international community of funders and likeminded organisations. Relationships
with our existing partners are strong, and as such, we consider the funding environment to be
favourable as we enter into this next phase.
