Although founded in June 2011, TAJOA received official registration from The Government of Tanzania in January 2012. TAJOA’s headquarters are located in Njombe, Southern Tanzania, and a sub-office will be established in Dar es Salaam. 
TAJOA is a unique project that recognises access to information as a basic human right and offers a viable solution that allows every citizen to access this basic right. 
TAJOA seeks to unite journalists and ordinary citizens in Tanzania in order to promote the exchange of knowledge and information. This is achieved in two ways: (1) building the professional capacities of journalists; (2) persuading citizens to participate in journalism.
