This study aimed at finding out to what extent the Tanzania Police Force is on track in the implementation of National Plan of Action to end violence Against Women and Children (NPA-VAWC). This study was conducted by using descriptive research design to draw insight about the theme and deployed qualitative approaches in data collection and analysis. Data collection was through interviews for primary data, while documentary reviews was undertaken to get insights from relevant reports, journal articles and authentic publications to supplement on primary information. The study established that though 73% of respondents had no idea of National Action Plan in addressing Violence against women and children (NPA-VAWC), still they are aware of strategies deployed by TPF in addressing VAWC, so TPF is on track in implementing NPA-VAWC. The study identified and documented critical challenges facing the implementation of NPA-VAWC as the backlog of cases, budget constrain, medical registration number in PF3, poor recording and inaccurate information, inadequate and delayed responses. The study recommends among others it should establish develop and enhance education programs on VAWC issues, providing financial assistance to PGCD, improving resources and infrastructure used by VAWC implementers and concludes that study findings revealed that TPF is on track in implementing NPA-VAWC regardless of some challenges as were depicted in the study. |
