Chama cha Uzazi na Malezi Bora Tanzania (UMATI) is an autonomous, non-political national NGO providing Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights(SRHR) information, education, and services in Tanzania. It was established in 1959 and became a leading national organization providing youth-friendly information and services, particularly to underserved young people and women. In 1973 UMATI became a member association of the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) where technical and core funds support have been provided. By being a member of IPPF, UMATI is internationally connected through experience sharing with other IPPF member associations.
Since the Organization’s strategic plan ended in 2022, there is a need to develop a new strategic plan that responds to the current SRH situation within Tanzania. As a member of IPPF, this new strategic plan is also expected to align with IPPF’s new strategic framework titled ‘Come Together Strategy 2023-2028’. This new strategy is a strong response to the global changes that have severely impacted access to SRHR. Changes that have emanated from the devastating impact of pandemics, climate change, migration, structural injustice, and growing inequality. Again, contextually, the new strategic plan is expected to integrate emerging concepts around digital health interventions (DHI) and gender, etc.
UMATI invites eligible firms or consultants to indicate their interest in the development of UMATI Strategic Plan 2023-2028.
The overall objective of this assignment is to develop a new strategic framework (2023 – 2028) for UMATI that takes into account the current internal and external operating environment in order to enhance UMATI’s effectiveness and sustainability.
The specific objective of this new strategic plan development is to undertake the situational analysis of SRH in Tanzania, Review and understand the IPPF Strategic Plan and contextualize it with the country context and lead the preparation of the whole process of development of the UMATI Strategic Plan .
