Bodhi conducted the endline evaluation of the Save Her Seat project for Right To Play in Tanzania. This three-year initiative (April 2023 to March 2026), funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and Liverpool Football Club Foundation, aimed to increase gender equality and improve learning outcomes for girls in grades 5-7 across 40 primary schools in Tarime and Serengeti districts, Mara region. The project targeted over 4,800 girls aged approximately 12-15 years through interventions that decreased barriers to girls' school engagement by enhancing life skills and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) knowledge, strengthening gender-responsive and safe learning environments, and increasing community engagement to dismantle harmful gender norms. The evaluation employed a mixed-methods design with an intersectional gender lens, using both quantitative tools (life skills assessment, child survey, classroom observation, school records review) and qualitative methods (key informant interviews with teachers, parents, school administrators and education officials; focus group discussions with teachers, parents/caregivers, and children including those with disabilities).
