Transforming Women’s Health Through Education and Care
Mwandamo's vision is a community where women and mamas in Tanzania feel confident advocating for themselves and their health.
Through nurturing and holistic care, Mwandamo supports women to better understand their bodies with the goal of improving health outcomes.
MWANDAMO – meaning Lunar in Kiswahili
The Mwandamo logo features a large "M" for Mwandamo with a smaller "W" inside, for Women. The two outer peaks of the "M" represent Mount Meru and Mount Kilimanjaro, while the central peak of the "W" signifies Arusha, our home nestled between these mountains. The design also resembles a crown, honouring women as queens, and incorporates the ancient Berkana Rune, a symbol associated with birth, fertility, and femininity.
Where Women And Mothers Feel Empowered
The Mwandamo model begins with women, a crucial yet often overlooked starting point in parts of Tanzania where their voices in healthcare are frequently dismissed. This leads to poor outcomes and sometimes mistreatment. Our approach educates women about their rights and the quality of care they deserve, empowering them to advocate for themselves—whether to healthcare providers, family, or the community—ensuring their needs are met with respect and dignity.
