SECTOR 4 Faith and ethnicity-based discrimination is more common in religious radio stations, which mostly hire from their community of believers. Panellists said there were no veiled women on TV and women who insist on being veiled have been forced to move to the print media. ‘There is lack of true representation of Tanzania in the media.’ Tanzania does not recognise the right to sexuality and freedom from discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation. As such, same-sex sexual relations are criminalised. LGBTQIA+ people in the country often face harassment, victimisation and arrests. Panellists said there were some well-known gay people in the media.
