About us

Our Story

The Nurses association was established in Tanzania on 29th November 1971 which by then was known as Tanzania registered Nurses Association (TARENA). In 2005 the constitution was reviewed and our Association changed to Tanzania National Nurses Association (TANNA) and this was enabled the involvement of not just registered Nurses but also all Enrolled Nurses throughout the country.

Currently TANNA has a total of 8000 active member out of more than 50,000+ all enrolled and Registered Nurses in Tanzania mainland. The Association currently has a total of 46 Regional Branches. All 47 Branches have eight (8) TANNA Branch leaders.

 

The Association is made up of 10 members of National Election Committee (NEC) whereby within them three are appointed by President and all remained are elected during Annual General meeting after every three years of the previous leadership. These current 10 members are the highest Board of Authority of the association. Moreover, the association is being governed by a Nurses’ National Council of leaders from 49 branches across the country and the day to day affairs are overseen by an elected National Executive Committee of 14 individuals.
