A delegation from the Tanzania Association of Social Workers visited NASW’s national office in Washington, D.C., and its New York City chapter in November to exchange information and make site visits that will aid the annual work plan between the two associations.

NASW’s Human Rights & International Affairs Division established a twinning partnership between NASW and TASWO with funding from the American International Health Alliance. The alliance is supported by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration through the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief and USAID Tanzania.

The delegation consisted of Dr. Leonard Mbilinyi, TASWO chairperson; Dunford Makala, the Tanzania Commissioner of Social Welfare; Enock Mbise, a member of TASWO’s executive committee, and Anna Swai, TASWO development director.
