Abstract

This article argues that children with disabilities face significant obstacles in schooling in Tanzania, despite the government initiative to formulate policy and awareness creation for people with disabilities. This paper examined the causes of enrollments disparities of students with disabilities in the schooling system in Tanzania. Three objectives were addressed regarding enrollment trends from 2016 to 2020, causes leading to disparities in enrolments, and obstacles facing students with disabilities in non-inclusive schools. Documentary analysis and interview methods were used to collect information. The participants were special needs educators and students from secondary schools and universities. The findings reveal disparities in enrollment of students with disabilities as they advance from lower to higher levels of schooling. The analysis shows that the smaller number of students with disabilities in the schooling system was attributed to a lack of awareness among parents on the educational services provided to children with disabilities, traditional beliefs, poverty, stigma, and harassment. The analysis further shows that shortage of qualified teachers, poor school infrastructures, and unsupported inclusive classrooms was among many obstacles facing students with disabilities in schools.

Abstract

This article explores the intersection of disability and gender, analyzing the compounded disadvantages individuals with disabilities face in education and employment contexts. Drawing from a wide range of academic sources, including feminist disability studies and labor market research, the paper examines how gender and disability intersect to create unique barriers for women and men with disabilities. The research highlights the structural inequalities in both education and employment that limit access to opportunities, focusing particularly on the African context. By analyzing these factors through a gendered disability lens, the study advocates for inclusive policies and practices that address both the challenges of gender and disability simultaneously.
