Who We Are

A Tanzanian organization centered on children.

NanaNakeya was established in 2018 and legally registered as an NGO in 2023. Our name expresses the idea of growing with a child while helping them see and prepare for their future.

We believe children are rights holders, sources of creativity, and active contributors to equitable and sustainable communities.
