Recruitment and intake was carried out across the Kisaprogram as usual and the team were ready for another year of creating impact. In March however, as across the globe, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic caused significant disruption to our programming. Schools closed for several months and GLAMI quickly pivoted its delivery method to phone mentoring, mostly through parents as well as some social worker visits. We incorporated the delivery of supplies to both schools and individuals, as well as relocation to rescue homes for our more vulnerable scholars where appropriate. This quick adaptation ensured maximum retention of scholars return of KisaScholars once schools reopened. While a small number of scholars failed to return due to pregnancy or early marriage, this number was significantly less than for those girls not enrolled in our programs.I would like to thank our Board for all the support they have offered over the past year, as well as our extraordinary staff for their tireless efforts under challenging circumstances. To all our donors, we would not be able to do this work without you -thank you so much for your investment in the future leaders of our country. To our partner schools and the parents of our scholars, thank you for working with us to ensure no girl was left behind. And finally, to the scholars themselves - you inspire us every day with your resilience, your strength, and above all, your courage.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2019-01-01","end":"2021-01-01","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"TANZANIA","abbreviation":"TZ"}],"geog_coverage":"National Coverage","analysis_unit":"secondary school girls in Tanzania in their last two years of secondary school","universe":"Secondary School Girls in their Last 2 years of secondary school in Arusha and kilimanjaro Tanzania","notes":"The scope of this survey includes,\n\nSECONDARY SCHOOL GIRLS IN TANZANIA - prepare girls in their last two years of secondary school to attend university and create positive social change in their communities"},"method":{"data_collection":{"sampling_procedure":"This project compares Scholars' responses on a baseline survey that they took on entry to the program in 2019 to their responses at endline in 2021.
