Impacting Lives and Livelihoods!

About Tiba Salama


Tiba Salama Digital Health Company Limited is a social enterprise headquartered in Dar es Salaam. Registered under the Companies Act of 2002, the company focuses on enhancing healthcare access for pregnant women and children under five in rural Tanzania.

Tiba Salama collaborates closely with Community Health Workers (CHWs), health facilities, and Local Government Authorities (LGAs) to close health service gaps, reduce preventable deaths, and equip frontline workers with appropriate tools and innovations for improved service delivery.

Vision

To eliminate preventable maternal and child deaths and ensure every family lives with dignity and hope.

Mission

To deliver quality healthcare for all through technology, CHWs, and close collaboration with local governments, while strengthening the economic resilience of rural families.

Tiba Salama’s 3D Model

TibaSalama implements its activities based on the 3 Delays (3D) model to eliminate preventable maternal and child deaths for children under five by identifying and addressing key challenges that delay access to quality healthcare services.

Delay 1 – Delay in deciding to seek care

The first delay occurs when pregnant women or families are unable to recognize danger signs or decide to seek healthcare services promptly.

Cause: Lack of awareness, fear, cultural beliefs, or family support

Our Response: TibaSalama provides maternal and reproductive health education to communities via trained Community Health Workers (CHWs) and digital platforms, increasing awareness and encouraging timely health-seeking behavior.

Delay 2 – Delay in reaching the healthcare facility

The second delay happens when women face barriers in physically accessing healthcare facilities due to various logistical and financial challenges.

Cause: Lack of transport, distance, or financial constraints

Our Response: TibaSalama facilitates early referral systems and emergency transportation by leveraging the TibaSalama app and collaborating with the government-led M-MAMA initiative to ensure rural women can reach health facilities quickly.

Delay 3 – Delay in receiving adequate care once at the facility

The third delay occurs when women reach healthcare facilities but do not receive timely, appropriate, and quality care due to systemic health system challenges.

Cause: Shortage of staff, equipment, medication, or poor service delivery

Our Response: TibaSalama strengthens health services by training frontline health providers—especially nurses, midwives, and doctors—enhancing the use of digital tools for data collection, and working closely with local government authorities to ensure timely, efficient, and high-quality care.

Overall, the 3D model serves as TibaSalama’s core strategic framework for designing, implementing, and evaluating its community health interventions by integrating education, technology, community, and institutional partnerships into one sustainable service delivery system.
