As a result women have faced harassments within their individual lives such as at work and also at home. An era came when such ideologies were put aside and the woman had to be part of nature as she too is a human being. With that the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) came into force. For almost thirty years Tanzania has been silent on the issue of domesticatig the CEDAW. This has been so even though the principles of international law depict, once a State ratifies an international instrument it is under an obligation to domesticate it for proper use within the legal institutions. This, however has remained to be in abyss. Despite the fact that Tanzania has ratified this instrument indicators of discrimination against women is still visible through laws that have not been abolished and institutions that are not free and independent in dealing with issues that affect women in general. This study aims at discussing in depth the CEDAW, what important features it potrays and how each country has to implement these principles embodied within the Convention. The study further discusses on the international, regional and domestic legal framework and what has been done so far. Moreover the obligation Tanzania has under international law and the effects of going against these obligations are also discussed in detail. In concluding possible solutions that can be used to solve this problem have been pointed out.
