What does the Tanzania report establish about questioning privately?
For questioning privately in Tanzania, Rage 2 Rebuild selects “Freedom of expression, advocacy of humanist values” from Humanists International’s chapter dated 12 November 2020. It describes national institutions or published conditions, not family reactions, emotions or access to an individual service. Check current facts before acting.
Country chapter updated 12 November 2020 · retrieved September 5, 2026. This chapter is more than two years old. Its assessments are not confirmation of current law or a prediction about your circumstances.
Freedom of expression, advocacy of humanist values
Despite being enshrined in the Constitution, the government continued its crackdown on the rights to freedom of expression and association targeting journalists, human rights defenders and political opposition members. The crackdown intensified as the October 2020 presidential elections approached.
Regressive legislative reform
On 10 August 2020, the government passed the Electronic and Postal Communications (Online Content) Regulations 2020, which tighten state control over the internet and social media by criminalizing the posting of “rumours” or messages that “ridicule, abuse or harm the reputation, prestige or status of the United Republic of Tanzania”. In addition, the regulations also ban content on “the outbreak of deadly or contagious diseases in the country or elsewhere without the approval of the respective authorities,” which would include COVID-19. The regulations also serve to further restrict the media by banning local media outlets from broadcasting foreign content without government permission. It is expected that this will most affect local stations that air content from international media outlets such as BBC, RFI, and Deutsche Welle, amongst others.
Criminalization of “blasphemy”
On the mainland, insults to religion and acts of uttering words with intent to wound religious feelings is criminalized under Article 125 and 129 of the Penal Code.

Which Tanzania findings should I check before acting?
Rage 2 Rebuild highlights 4 published findings for questioning privately in Tanzania. Our selection connects the 12 November 2020 chapter with private inquiry, digital traces and public expression. Each quote is separate from our practical question. It identifies something to investigate, not a conclusion about your household.
Expression of core humanist principles on democracy, freedom or human rights is somewhat restricted
This is a published assessment of institutions, not an individual outcome or a current legal determination.
A question to verify: Which part of this assessment applies to the actual decision, and what still needs current local verification?
‘Blasphemy’ is outlawed or criticism of religion (including de facto ‘blasphemy’ laws) is restricted and punishable with a prison sentence
The chapter flags a rule affecting expression or a change of religious identity. Private belief, a public statement and an institutional request can have different consequences.
A question to verify: Which current rules apply to the specific statement or request, and who is qualified to check them before it is made?
Some concerns about political or media freedoms, not specific to the non-religious
This is a published assessment of institutions, not an individual outcome or a current legal determination.
A question to verify: Which part of this assessment applies to the actual decision, and what still needs current local verification?
State legislation is partly derived from religious law or by religious authorities
This finding is about institutional arrangements. It does not establish the beliefs of a resident, a relative or a specific official.
A question to verify: Which named institution is involved in this decision, and what current written rule should be checked?

Look beyond the name you type
A nickname does not make an account anonymous. Email addresses, profile photographs, contact syncing, browser history, downloads, notifications and people with device access can connect an activity to you. Private browsing also has limits outside the browser itself.
Separate reading, joining and publishing
Opening an informational page, creating an account, joining a group and posting a personal statement create different records and audiences. You can read before joining. You can ask about a group’s privacy rules without giving a full biography.

How did religious identity change in Tanzania?
Rage 2 Rebuild’s Tanzania table shows 2.2% religiously unaffiliated in 2010 and 3.5% in 2020, using Pew’s all-age population estimates. The seven categories describe religious identity, not how many individuals left religion or experienced harm. Rounded population changes cannot predict acceptance, guilt, safety or a support outcome.
| Identity | 2010 | 2020 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Christian | 61.7% | 64.7% | +3.0 pp |
| Muslim | 35.4% | 29.9% | -5.5 pp |
| Religiously unaffiliated | 2.2% | 3.5% | +1.3 pp |
| Buddhist | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Hindu | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Jewish | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Other religions | 0.7% | 2.0% | +1.3 pp |
“Other religions” combines traditions that cannot be analyzed separately here. A “less than” input stays an inequality; a change involving it is not calculated. Rounding and demographic processes matter. Nationality does not establish anyone’s beliefs.
