R.I.S.E. Scholars
Embrace Relief’s R.I.S.E. Program offers female teachers in Tanzania the opportunity to become administrators and supervisors in schools throughout the country. Through R.I.S.E., students will earn a Diploma in Education Management and Administration (DEMA) or School Quality Assurance (DSQI), offered by the Agency for the Development of Educational Management (ADEM) in Tanzania, and will become managers and supervisors in schools.
This unique program will give these students the chance to shape and change the landscape of primary and secondary education in Tanzania. Graduates of the R.I.S.E. program will have the opportunity to directly influence and foster a more effective learning environment for children throughout Tanzania.
The DEMA program produces innovative graduates who can adapt to the dynamic changes in science and technology and Tanzania’s educational system’s socio-economic needs.
The DSQI program produces innovative graduates who fulfill the needs for quality assurance in Tanzania’s rapidly expanding educational sector.
Role Models
In Tanzania, where positions of power are dominated by men, successful educated women can inspire future generations to pursue a life of their choosing.
Economic Opportunity
Fewer women complete their education than men, leading to under-representation of women in the workforce and in leadership. Educated women have a clearer path to higher incomes, leadership roles, and influence.
Education
129 million schoolaged girls worldwide are not attending school. Changing that is key: better-educated women are healthier, more productive, and more economically successful.
STORIES FROM WOMEN
Reach. Inspire. Support. Educate.
At Embrace Relief, women’s education is a fundamental aspect of our mission. That’s why we have launched our R.I.S.E. program, where we are training the next generation of teachers and administrators to be the foundation for improved education in Tanzania.
Through Embrace Relief’s R.I.S.E. program, 24 female teachers are receiving support in order to help them achieve a two-year degree in Education Management and Administration (DEMA) and School Inspection (DSI). These degrees will empower the graduates with the knowledge and skills they need to improve Tanzania’s educational system for all students.
