TIFPA’s core aim is to work and avail itself as a platform for social justice and advocacy for the poor, marginalized and vulnerable sections of society in Tanzania. Over the past  five years, TIFPA engaged in the constitution making processes both at the community and national level for formulation of a new Constitution for the United Republic of Tanzania. TIFPA successful carried out advocacy on the process of formulating Tanzania’s new constitution and enhanced the process through reviewing gaps in the existing Constitution of the United Republic of Tanzania 1977, as amended from time to time, producing booklets and brochures for public consumption,  stimulating participation of the general public in the process of soliciting their views countrywide, convening itself as Baraza la Katiba and generally ensuring that  social justice issues are enshrined in the new Constitution. In addition, TIFPA strengthened partnership with Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) engaged in the constitutional review processes.
