THE VISION
BEHIND
TEENS
CORRIDOR

Teens Corridor is a youth- and young-women-led nonprofit advancing the well-being of adolescents and young people across Tanzania. Registered under the NGO Act No. 24 of 2002, we work from Ilemela District in the Mwanza Region.

We believe every young person deserves equal opportunities to make informed choices, realise their full potential and participate meaningfully in shaping their communities.

Our vision is a Tanzania where adolescents and young people enjoy healthy lives, exercise their rights and have opportunities for sustainable economic well-being.

Our mission is to advance adolescents’ and young people’s health and economic well-being through innovative programs, meaningful youth participation, digital inclusion and evidence-based advocacy.

If young people can access safe spaces, accurate SRHR information, quality referral pathways, digital and employability skills and supportive social norms, they will enjoy healthier lives and stronger economic futures.

Young people are not merely beneficiaries. They are leaders, innovators and agents of change.
