Scope & Modules
Phase 1 connects two unions:
- Tanzania Plantation and Agricultural Workers Union (TPAWU)
- Tanzania Mines, Energy, Construction and Allied Workers’ Union (TAMICO)
Core modules: secure member records, communications, grievance & case tracking, collective bargaining agreements, projects, workshops & trainings, and a digital library — all in one auditable system.
Support & Partnerships
The initiative is supported by organizations that champion decent work and digital capacity in unions:
Building and Wood Workers’ International (BWI)
IndustriALL Global Union
Forbundet Styrke (LO Norway)
Norwegian Society of Engineers and Technologists (NITO)
Why “Umoja” (Togetherness)?
“Umoja” stands for unity and collaboration. The database promotes interoperability between unions, reduces duplicated work, and enables shared analytics and reporting — so each union gains from collective progress.
