Uwezo is a citizen led initiatives on assessing studying skills of children in Kiswahili and English language and calculating simple mathematics of standard two levels for children of 7 years to 16 years. The uwezo assessment aimed to get answers for the question ‘are our children learning?’ In 2015, ACC in collaboration with Twaweza East Africa conducted Uwezo Basic Assessment in Dodoma Municipal in order to assess the skills of children aged 7 to 16 years on reading English and Swahili and calculating simple Mathematics. In 2016, the organisations conducted Uwezo Beyond Basics in Chamwino districts that focuses standard five and six children in order to evaluate if they have qualified skills that are acquired in standard four.
