UtanguliziSera za Serikali ni muhimu sana, kwa sababu hutoa njia. Lakini ubora wa sera hujionyesha pale tu zinavyotumika. Njia ya kweli ya kupima maendeleo imo katika kuangalia jinsi sera zinavyojidhihirisha katika maisha ya watu wa kawaida nchini kote.

Inasemekana kwamba Tanzania inazo sera nzuri, aidha kumekuwepo na mafanikio mengi. Lakini taarifa za Serikali, tafiti binafsi na sauti za umma nchini kote zinaonyesha kwamba kiwango cha ubora wa maisha ya wananchi masikini, hususan waishio vijijini bado hakitoshelezi. Ustawi na utu wa walio wengi bado huendelea kukiukwa kila siku.

Kuna njia nyingi za kuelimisha, kupeana taarifa, kuhakiki au kuburudisha. Mkusanyiko huu wa katuni, ambazo ni za tatu katika mfululizo wa katuni zinazochapishwa na HakiElimu, unalenga kwenye mapengo yaliyopo kati ya sera na utekelezaji wake. Unatilia mkazo mgongano uliopo katika masuala ya maendeleo, kwa njia ya ucheshi. Lengo si kukosoa bali ni kutambua, kutoa changamoto na juu ya yote ni kuamsha fikra na kuibua mjadala.

Kwa kutekeleza masuala mazito hivi, changamoto ni jambo la kawaida. Njia muafaka ni kutambua matatizo na vikwazo, na kuyatathmini kwa uwazi na ukweli kama hatua ya kwanza ya kuyashughulikia. Katuni moja ina uwezo wa kuwasilisha hoja kwa nguvu zaidi kuliko maneno elfu. Katuni ina uwezo wa kutoa utambuzi wa kina na kwa kusisimua. Katuni inaweza kusaidia kusema mambo ambayo ni nyeti kabisa.

Katuni zinaweza kuzungumza na sisi sote, kila mmoja peke yake au kwa pamoja. Je sisi kama raia wema, majukumu yetu ni yapi? Tutaisaidiaje Serikali? Utafanyaje ili Serikali ikusaidie? Mabadiliko sharti yaanzie kwako na kwangu, na sio kesho bali leo!

Tafakari! Uliza maswali. Jadili na marafiki, familia na majirani. Zungumza na viongozi katika jumuia yako. Andika maoni na mapendekezo yako halafu uyatume kwa viongozi wako na kwa Afisa Elimu wa Wilaya au kwa Katibu Mtendaji. Uliza maswali mengi kadri uwezavyo, hakikisha unaelewa. Hiyo ni haki yako. Na kama ukipenda, tuma nakala kwa Katibu Mkuu, Wizara ya Elimu na Utamaduni, SLP 9121, Dar es Salaam; Katibu Mkuu, Ofisi ya Rais, Tawala za Mikoa na Serikali za Mitaa, SLP 1923, Dodoma na kwetu kwa HakiElimu, SLP 79401, Dar es Salaam. Au tuma barua fupi kwa mhariri wa gazeti au chombo chochote cha habari (Anwani za vyombo vya habari zimeambatanishwa ukurasa wa iii).

Maoni yako ni muhimu. Nchi yako inahitaji kipaji chako, ubunifu wako, mawazo yako na kujitolea kwako ili kuifanya Tanzania kuwa mahalipa kuvutia.

IntroductionPolicies are very important, because they make the road. But policies are only as good as their becoming real on the ground. The true test of development is how policies come alive in the lives of ordinary people across the country.

Tanzania is said to have good policies. There have also been many achievements. But government reports, independent studies and public voices across the country show that the quality of life of the poor, particularly in the rural areas, is far from adequate. The wellbeing and dignity of many continues to be assaulted every day.

There are many ways to educate, inform, critique and entertain. This cartoon booklet third in the series produced by HakiElimu, this booklet focuses on the gaps between policy and practice. It highlights contradictions in development, using humor. The aim is not to criticize, but to appreciate, to challenge, and above all stimulate thought and debate.

With ambitious undertakings, challenges are normal. The right approach is to identify the problems and bottlenecks, and examine them openly and honestly, as a first step towards dealing with them. A cartoon can communicate a point more powerfully than a thousand words. A cartoon can be insightful and dramatic. It can help to say things that are far too sensitive.

Cartoons can speak to all of us, individually as well as collectively. What is our responsibility as good citizens? How do we support the Government? How do we get the Government to support us? Change should begin with you and me, not tomorrow, but today!

Think! Ask questions. Discuss with friends, family and neighbors. Talk with local leaders. Write down your views and suggestions and send them to your local leaders, the District Education Officer or Ward Executive Officer. Ask more questions; make it your business to know! It is your right! If you want, copy them to the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education and Culture (MOEC), PO Box 9121, Dar es Salaam; the Permanent Secretary, President’s Office Regional Administration and Local Government (PO-RALG), PO Box 1923, Dodoma and to us at HakiElimu, PO Box 79401, Dar es Salaam. Or send a short letter to the editor in any media organization (addresses are listed on page iii). Your views matter. Your country needs your talent, your creativity, your ideas and your commitment to make Tanzania wonderful place.
