 In Zanzibar, an island off the coast of Tanzania, there are no policies expressly guaranteeing women's rights to land even though the country's constitution states there is an equal right to property ownership.

- be a mother who does whatever is necessary to protect her child


- teach


- be a healer


- represent the continuity of Kmtyw people


- represent the stability of the Kmtyw family


- maintain and pass on Kmtyw culture


- organize and direct the Kmtyw market, enabling our people to understand thespirit of economic exchange and distribution of our resources


- be a scientist of the sacred


- be an intellectual


- be Divine
