UTANGULIZI
Asasi hii ilianzishwa hapa Musoma kuanzia mwezi Februari mwaka 2011 ikiwa
na wanachama waasisi kumi (10). Wazo la kuanzisha Asasi hii lilitokana na
ukweli kwamba moja ya vikwazo vinavyosababisha kudorora kwa maendeleo katika
jamii za nchi zinazoendelea ni kukosekana kwa taarifa sahihi na za wakati.
Asilimia kubwa ya jamii ya Watanzania wanaishi nje ya miji ambako kuna uhaba wa
vyombo vya kupashana habari kama vile magazeti, radio, luninga, internet n.k.
Kukosekana kwa taarifa za mambo yanayofanyika ndani ya jamii na nje ya jamii
waliyomo kunawanyima fursa ya kushiriki katika kukabiliana na changamoto

PRELIMINARY
This Organization was
established in Musoma in February 2011 by ten (10) founder members. The idea of
establishing this organization was due to the fact that one of the constraints
of community development in most developing countries is the lack of right and
updated information. Most communities of Tanzania live in rural areas where
source of information is inaccessible such as news papers, radio, TV, internet
etc. Lack of information regarding what is done within and out of the community
it denies them the opportunity to participate in coping with social, economic
and cultural challenges to cope with changes in the today’s world of science,
technology and globalization.
VISION
To have a community with wide clear
knowledge and understanding of right information regarding social, economic and
cultural issues in order to realize community changes and tackle with developmental
challenges.
MISSION
The mission of JIN is to participate and involve the community at all
levels particularly the marginalized groups in collecting, writing,
dissemination and sharing of information.
OBJECTIVES
To provide
information enabling the community to cope with challenges and effects of
poverty, corruption and HIV/AIDS.
To involve the
community in collecting important information, writing them and disseminating
them for the purpose of strengthening information communication.
To strengthen
communication networks within communities enabling communities to access right
and updated information.
To involve
communities in identifying and promoting advocacy on various policies that will
benefit communities through debates.
To conduct various researches to identify social, economic and cultural
issues in order to find solutions.
To empower community members at large with knowledge through brochures,
news, radio, TV and trainings in order to acquire knowledge that will lead to
positive self-changes.
To raise community awareness to realize and advocate for their basic
rights built on democracy, equality, good governance, transparence and
accountability.
