OUR HISTORY

WGDF-TANZANIA exists because we want to build a just society for our communities.  We believe that the most leveraged way to alleviate global poverty is through social cooperative, community empowerment and gender equality. We cooperate with stake holders to implement different social and economic projects that empower development of Tanzania communities through capacity building.

 On 23rd august in 2011 WGDF-TANZANIA was established and dedicated to community of Tanzania. One year later it was registered as a nongovernmental organization under Non- governmental act of Tanzania NO24. The first WGDF-TANZANIA projects was to support community of kyerwa in bees keeping, education and medication projects.

In 2013, WGDF-TANZANIA started the Youth development project (YDP) in shinyanga region where by we organized youths to form Savings and Credit Cooperative Societies, which is one of our biggest and most successful project we are progressing with know. Today there are (6) SACCOs where by 200 youths are benefiting from this YSACCOS.

In 2014, BS-AFRICA started, first as BS-AFRICA Ltd., later as BS-AFRICA plc. (Public limited company), which is a cooperation of local bees keepers and farmers. The intention of WGDF-TANZANIA  was to give fair prices to bee’s keepers’ products and famers prodacts. It is now an independent company.

Since our establishment, WGDF-TANZANIA grew bigger and bigger and gained several partners all over the world. Today, WGDF-TANZANIA is very important to the development of Tanzania.
