AN ANALYSIS OF THE LAW, POLICY, AND PRACTICES ON THE PROTECTION
OF REFUGEE'S RIGHTS IN TANZANIA.
"If we lived in a just world, all nations would protect their citizens
human rights. But that's not our world. Refugees are just one
result of injustice. Crucially, they didn't cause their plight; they
are victims of profound injustice. Because their home nation
cannot or will not protect even their basic human rights, they must
migrate in search of protection, They are entitled to this
protection, as all of us are, simply by being human " - Patti
Tamara Lenard.2
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights 3 provides inter alia the right to seek and enjoy
asylum from persecution in any other territory. That right is a cornerstone for the protection of
refugee rights around the universe. the United Republic of Tanzania is an East African country
bordering the Indian Ocean. Its neighbors are Kenya and Uganda, to the north, Rwanda, Burundi,
and DRC, to the west, and finally, Zambia, Malawi, and Mozambique to the south. Tanzania's
population is approximately 62.56 million as of the 2022 Census. 4 The country gained its
independence in 1961 and has been nominated as one of the most collegial African countries for
asylum.5
According to the 1951 Convention, 6A refugee is a person who, owing to a well-founded fear of
being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social

group, or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality and is unable to or, owing to
such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that country. 7Its supplement the 1967
protocol removed the temporal and geographical restrictions so that the convention would apply
universally. 8Currently, Tanzania hosts 250,522 as of August 31, 2023 report from UNHCR.
Among that number, 137,511 were located in Nyarugusu Camp, 72,134 were in Nduta, 10,844 in
Katumba, 4,907 were in Ulyankulu, 3,199 in Mishamo, 270 were found in Dar es Salaam city
21,507 are located in other areas. The data reveals that, in analyzing this group by their country
of origin, the Burundians 140,059, from DRC 88,445, and 511 are from other territories.9
Refugees are the most vulnerable members of the community since they are often faced with
Xenophobia, discrimination, substandard living, housing, and working conditions, and
inadequate or restricted access to mainstream health services. 10This vulnerability situation leads
to human rights violations due to multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination and other
aforementioned rationales. 11Hence it is called that this group requires special attention and care
to ensure the protection of their fundamental human rights.
This paper will address the Legal and Historical background of the refugees in Tanzania as well
as analyze the current legal remiges particularly The Reguee Act, the National Refugee Policy,
and Governmental Practices towards the protection of refugee's rights, it will also discuss other
challenges and suggest a way forward tackle the existing problems to ensure the protection of
refugee's rights as well as preserve the Country's commitment to UDHR.12

2.0 HISTORICAL AND LEGAL CONTEXT OF THE PROTECTION OF REFUGEE'S
RIGHTS IN TANZANIA
It is important to appreciate the historical and legal context when addressing issues relating to
refugees in Tanzania since the historical context highlights the origin of refugees and addresses
past problems and tactics used to combat those challenges, it lays a foundation of the experience,
current situation and what should be done to achieve the goals while legal context explains on
the legal instruments governing protection of refugees rights in Tanzania but not only that but
also looking at regional and global level, which its foundation of this study.
Most literature did not speak about this period, it’s like an unforgotten memory but in some
literature, Tanzania by then Tanganyika even before the independence was the safe heaven. This
is marked by the first group of refugees from Poland which arrived on August 27, 1942. 13 During
the earliest days of WWII, Poland was invaded and experienced German occupation in the West
and the Soviet Union in the East. At this time many Poles were forcibly sent to hard labor camps
in Russia, known as Gulags, to support the efforts of War. Others formed underground
movements and fought in exile alongside the Allies in 1941, Germany betrayed and invaded the
Soviet Union, and many Poles were released from the camps to raise an army to aid in the
national struggle against the Nazis.14
Many poles fought in the Mediterranean theatre of war such as during the Allied invasion of
Sicily and the Liberation of Italy, However, the problem was many others who were released
from the camps were simple citizens and farmers with nowhere to go and no land to return to. In
the next days, the British, then, allies of the Soviets, agreed to a proposal in which refugees from
Europe would spread across the vast British Empire for safety, it is when after a long voyage
across Europe and Iran, a group of roughly 5,000 Polish citizens ultimately found refuge in a
small village of Tengeru in Tanzania by then Britain’s Tanganyika Territory. 15

The Polish refugees lived for nearly 10 years in harmony with the residents, after which some
continued with their journey, finding homes in Britain and America, while about 1000 refugees
decided to settle and call Tengeru home for several generations. In the Early years of the
settlements many refugees, especially children, died as a result of diseases like Malaria that are
not native to Europe. Others lived long healthy lives and were eventually buried along with their
compatriot. During this time there was no legislation governing issues of refugees in Tanzania. 16

population known as the Refugee (control) Act. 21 This instrument mandates the power of the
Government to geographically restrict refugee settlement to ‘designated areas’ and require
refugees to obtain permits to remain in the country or to move within it. It also poses power to
the Responsible Minister to declare “any class of persons as refugees (with a few exceptions,
including citizens).22In 1968, Tanzania acceded to the 1967 Protocol Relating to the Status of
Refugees,23h having signed these treaties Tanzania became committed to all provisions therein,
however, some literature noted that very few of these international commitments have been fully
domesticated in Tanzania law.
In 1969, The OAU launched the 1969 Convention Governing Specific Aspects of Refugee
Problems in Africa.24 Tanzania is also a signatory to this treaty as of 27 June 1975. It has to be
noted that this regional instrument expanded the definition of the UN Refugee Convention of
1951 and its 1967 protocol which only recognized race, religion, nationality, membership of a
particular social group, and political opinion as grounds for persecution, it includes external
aggression, occupation, foreign domination, and events seriously disturbing public order. 25 The
year 1977 marked the rebirth of EAC which includes Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, South
Sudan, and Tanzania. The community among its commitment is to protect refugees where it is
provided under Article 124(4) and (5) of The Treaty for the Establishment of East African
Community,26 that partner states establish common mechanisms for the management of refugees.
However, some literature has expressed that, the refugee matters in this treaty and the
community itself are generally treated as a matter of security and not a humanitarian concern,
this is a challenge to the protection of refugee rights since the community will work to ensure
their safety but not to act humanely to protect this vulnerable group.
Southern African Development Community (SADC) was established in 1992, in which Tanzania
became a member of this social-economic block. Though this community its main objective is
economic activities to some extent few initiatives played a role concerning the protection of
refugees. For instance, in the year 2005, SADC completed the Protocol on the Facilitation of
21

Movement of Persons27, this instrument aims to phase in, over 10 years, the free movement of
citizens within and between SADC states. It would allow individuals to travel within the member
states for 90 days Visa-Free. It is unclear exactly how these agreements would affect refugees,
however, Article 28 (1)28 of this protocol requires partner states to comply with international
obligations on refugees including the 1951 29 and the 1969 OAU30 Conventions. Sub-article (3) of
the same provision requires member states to affirm their commitment to cooperate with
UNHCR and IOM in matters concerning refugees. Surprisingly, this protocol is not yet in force
as only six states have signed it totaled a total of nine are required to bring it into force.
At The height of major instability in the area due to civil wars and genocides in Rwanda and
Burundi between 1993-2000, the Republic of Tanzania received more than 1.5 million refugees.
At the same time, Tanzania was in a transition period from the regime of President J.K. Nyerere
and moving towards economic freedom and a multi-party system. The unexpected entry of
refugees caused the government of Tanzania to re-examine its open door policies, an event
marked by the temporary closure of its border with Burundi in March 1995 and the expulsion of
a majority of Rwandan Refugees in December of 1996. 31 In 1998 Tanzania enacted a Refugee
Act32 a predecessor of the Refugee(control) Act and then in 2,003, the unprecedented event
occurred when Tanzania enacted a National Refugee Policy 33. Both instruments solidify the
government’s discouragement of local integration as a durable solution for refugees, these
instruments will be discussed further in the coming section.
By December 2007, the Government of Tanzania announced its readiness to offer naturalization
as part of a solution for the 220,000 Burundian refugees present in Tanzania since 1972.
UNHCR welcomed this update enthusiastically at a time when it was pushing for the
implementation of durable solutions for protracted refugee situations. 34 These Burundian
refugees lived in two settlements in the Tabora and Katavi regions in Western Tanzania by 2007,
they were mostly self-reliant, producing subsistence crops, tobacco, and coffee for export while

contributing to the development of these remote regions. They were also generally taxpaying
members of society.35 In June 2010, Tanzania approved 162,156 applications for naturalization,
which comprised approximately 98% of the applications received. 36 However, the process was
halted in 2010, with only approximately 750 former refugees having received their citizenship
certificates. This created a great deal of uncertainty in the settlements causing some families to
suspend their agricultural or education investments. However, four years later in 2014, Tanzania
announced it would re-launch the initiative and that naturalized refugees would have the rights of
citizenship, including the right to remain in their settlements and to move freely throughout the
country. At this time, they extended citizenship to over 160,000 Burundian refugees who have
been in Tanzania since 1972. They also conducted the naturalization of 3,000 Somali Bantus in
2014 who had arrived in Tanzania in 1991.37
In 2015, another wave of political instability in Burundi led to an increase in refugees crossing
into Tanzania, as part of its response, in June 2017 joined UNHCR as an aviator country for the
implementation of the CRRF, an initiative to increase the access refugees have to education and
labor markets to develop skills and self-reliance. Yet nearly at the same time in 2017, His
Excellence the Late President John Joseph Pombe Magufuli ordered the suspension of the
registration and naturalization of Burundian refugees and began to ramp up initiatives to
repatriate Burundian Refugees who had come to Tanzania during their country’s 2015 election
conflicts.38 Suddenly and quite surprisingly according to many sources, including the
stakeholders we interviewed, in January 2018 Tanzania withdrew from CRRF, the government
cited several reasons for the withdrawal, including the international community’s failure to
recognize its historical role as a refugee-hosting country and the burden of being so; concerns
over security in the camps; believing that some refugees were formerly members of Rwandan
militias and a lack of international financial support to assist in integrating refugees into host
communities.39 This last point was particularly evident in the government’s refusal to accept the

WB loan connected to the CRRF. others have cited poor communication between the Ministry of
Home Affairs and the President’s Office leading to misconceptions about the CRRF and yet, in
December 2018, Tanzania chose to support the GCR which includes many of their commitments
previously made under the CRRF.
In summary, currently, the legal regime governing issues of refugees in Tanzania is mainly in
three levels, The Global level where the major instruments are the 1951 Convention 40 and its
1967 protocol41, Regional level where there are 1969 OAU Convention 42 and the Domestic level
where there are Refugee Act43 and National Refugee Policy44; this section reveals that the
behavior of the government towards the protection of refugees rights has never been stable as the
history shows that the country since independence has experience several policies and more the
restrictive policies towards protection of refugee’s rights.

be hosted in DA where by international community will be obliged to provide material
assistance58.
In practice, the government, once refugees reside within a DA enforces restrictions on the
movement of refugees, for instance; if a refugee is caught attempting to leave their DA without
permission, then officials may detain the individual for up to three days in a camp jail and issue a
fine of up to five thousand shillings. Just imagine, this person is suffering from unrest and forced
movement from their homeland to find peace and harmony in neighboring countries and at the
same time being punished which may lead to psychological torture, this is not fair and is likely to
violate his or her human rights. However, the right to freedom of movement is not mentioned in
the Act but the law itself is restrictive towards this right. 59 Authors reveal that, for refugee to
leave their DA, he or she must obtain a temporary movement permit from an official who then
determines the specific “terms and conditions” of the permit, A movement permit can only be
granted for up to 14 days unless a Director of refugee services has specifically allowed a permit
for a longer period. If the individual fails to comply with the terms and conditions of their
permit, they may be guilty of an offense against the Act, and if convicted can be imprisoned for
up to six months or fined fifty thousand shillings, or both. However, there is a practice that has
developed to prohibit refugees from moving outside a four-kilometer radius of their camp, this
was intended to allow refugees to collect amenities such as firewood. However, the controversy
of where the DA ends is another puzzle, since refugees may cross the four-kilometer boundary
without knowledge and they can be subjected to penalties, which torture them as matter as their
living condition conditions are d. The Act also made it a formal offense for a refugee to live
outside a DA without obtaining a permit, The problem is such permits are difficult to obtain and
are only granted for exceptional cases involving almost exclusively medical needs, religious
works, and higher education; significant tuition fees act as a barrier to enrolment and thus
receiving a permit.60 In the case of a work permit, if a refugee is found working outside a DA
without one,61 they face a fine of just under USD 100 or imprisonment for up to three years, or
both. There are no available statistics on how many individuals are currently living outside of
DA without authorization but if found by authorities they face expulsion from Tanzania.

It is quite clear that Tanzania’s legislation violates international legal instruments, which
advocate for the rights of refugees to freedom of movement such as UDHR but even the 1951
Convention to which Tanzania is a signatory, however, this treaty does state that these rights
may be subject to regulations imposed by the host state. Not only it is in contravention of
international law, by prohibiting refugees from leaving camps, but Tanzania’s current legislation
also prevents refugees from building sustainable, independent livelihoods, for instance; refugees
are not entitled to pursue employment opportunities other than by engaging in small income-
generating activities within the confines of the camps62.

generating activities have been increasingly restricted within the camps, as according to the
report presented by the Center for Forced Migration Studies, reveals that, within the camp,
refugees receive food rations and non-food items from the WFP, which many trade for other
items. therefore, this situation divulges that even the right to work is not fully guaranteed to
refugees in Tanzania. However, despite these restrictive economic policies within the camps and
regions surrounding the camp, a considerable number of would-be asylum seekers and refugees
residing in the urban centers such as Dar es Salaam, have been there for almost 15 years and live
and work with requested permits. These urban refugees interact and associate with Tanzanians
and become their neighbors.

refugees. It also poses questions to the readers and other authors to continue thinking of the
reforms to be made under Tanzania’s legal regime and practices to the promotion and respect of
refights rights as well as challenging the government’s international obligation and call them to
reconsider its restrictive policy and to find a way to curb the puzzle.
This document also reflects the past, present, and future of the human rights journey in Tanzania
particularly in refugee’s fundamental rights as one among the vulnerable groups taking into
consideration that this year 2023 the UDHR reached 75 years since its launch in 1948 under
auspices of the UN. Hence these findings create an attention to various human rights defenders to
assess and reflect what has been enshrined under the declaration and to give a way forward on
what should be done to promote and respect the refugee’s rights, particularly in Tanzania. I hope
that this analysis will lay a foundation for future research by other authors.
4.2 Recommendations
This juncture provides for the measures to be taken to improve the current legal regime and
practices on the protection of refugee rights in Tanzania;
a) Enactment of a set of regulations
Regulations are designed to guide, control, or manage various activities within a specific context.
Amending the Refugee Act would create room for some restrictions currently included in the
NRP to be cemented in law, therefore there is a need to construct regulations that will provide
guidance and clarification where the law does not provide flexibility
b) Increase Transparency in the decision-making process
By providing greater transparency, states can ensure that their decisions are based on clear and
consistent interpretations of the law, this can be achieved by providing clear guidelines for
interpretations. Transparency can foster trust and cooperation among states as it will lead to
promoting a shared understanding of the legal principles and obligations that govern issues of
refugee protection, this can facilitate the sharing of the best practices and help promote
consistency in decision-making across different jurisdictions. In sum, transparency in the
decision-making process is an essential tool for the protection of refugee’s rights.
c)curriculum to the refugee’s right to education
Certainly, in the context of providing education to refugees based on their home country's
curriculum in the host country, several comprehensive measures need to be taken. Firstly, it's
essential to adapt the curriculum thoughtfully, balancing the host country's educational standards
with the refugees' original curriculum. This adaptation process may involve translation,
alignment, and cultural sensitivity. Secondly, invest significantly in teacher training programs,
ensuring educators are proficient in both the curriculum content and the unique needs of refugee
students. Language support is pivotal; establish language programs to bridge linguistic gaps,
promoting effective communication and understanding. Additionally, prioritize mental health
and well-being by offering counseling services, aiding in trauma recovery, and emotional
support. Integration initiatives within the community, involving parents and local leaders, can
foster a sense of belonging and mutual understanding among students. Implement flexible
assessment methods that consider the diverse backgrounds of refugee learners. Adequate
infrastructure, including textbooks and technology, is vital. Furthermore, engage in advocacy
efforts to garner support, both nationally and internationally, for policies that facilitate equal
access to education for refugees. Lastly, develop long-term educational strategies, including
pathways to higher education and vocational training, ensuring refugees are equipped with skills
for self-sufficiency and successful integration into society. Approaching these measures with
empathy and inclusivity is fundamental to their success.
