What all people in the world have in common is their development as a human being from birth to old age, which is why the chapters are based on the individual developmental stages of a human life. It starts with childhood (‘Utotoni’) with fond memories, influences, medical problems and fairy tales. This is followed by adolescence (‘Vijana’) with topics such as mental health, experiences from adolescence and themes of growing up that occupy young people. Adulthood (‘Mtu mzima’) deals with becoming a mother, the challenges and joys of being a mother, as well as more serious issues and problems such as climate change and its impact on Tanzania. In the final chapter, the Old Age (‘Mzee’), there are stories about grandparents and elderly and a hopeful outlook with dreams and wishes for the future. A special focus is placed on women’s issues in order to strengthen their presence and representation.
