Serikali zote na mashirika ya kimataifa wameweka mdhamana
na kukubali kulinda haki za binadamu. Tanzania imetia saini ya
mapatano na mikataba ya kimataifa inayohakikisha kuwa kila
mtu ana haki kwa afya na haki ya kuwa huru kutokunyanyaswa
kwa mfano katika Azimio la Umoja wa Mataifa kuhusu Haki za
Binadamu.
Maazimio mengine yaliyoboreshwa ili kulinda haki za wanawake na
watoto,15 ni kama lile Azimio la Kuondoa Ubaguzi kwa Wanawake
na Azimio la Haki za Mtoto. Maazimio haya yanaeleza wazi kuwa
ukeketaji ni desturi mbaya na ni kinyume na haki za binadamu,
kinyume cha haki za mtoto na kinyume cha haki za afya kwa
wanawake. Na zaidi nchi nyingi za kiafrika wamepitisha sheria
kupiga marufuku ukeketaji.16 Hapa Tanzania, Bunge limepitisha
sheria maalumu ya Makosa ya Kujamiiana ya mwaka 1998 ambayo
inakataza ukeketaji kwa wasichana na wanawake vijana chini ya
miaka 18. Pia kuna sera17 ambayo inaelezea jamii kuondoa mila na
desturi kama vile ukeketaji kwa kuwa zina madhara kwa vijana.
Hivyo kama wewe ni msichana chini ya miaka 18 ni kosa la jinai
kufanyiwa tohara na pia ni kosa kwa mangariba kujishughulisha
na ukeketaji wa wanawake.
