Peer review in Tanzania : learning together towards the project goals

Abstract

In the Kilimanjaro VET project, coordinated by Educational Consortium OSAO (VET), a peer review was conducted in January 2025. The peer review assessed how the project's objectives had been achieved: enhance the pedagogical skills of VET teachers, enable continuous professional development, utilize digital solutions, and foster networking. The peer review, based on EQAVET framework, involved three educational institutions in Tanzania evaluating each other. Key findings include significant progress in implementing competence-based education, effective use of digital tools, and strong local and international networking. Challenges include limited resources and resistance to change. Recommendations emphasize continued evaluation, more training, and enhanced digital infrastructure.
