Matemwe is a village on the northeastern coast of Unguja, the main island of the Zanzibar Archipelago, between Mwangaseni and Kigomani. Its economy is mostly based on seaweed farming and fishing. The village hosts an education project aimed at providing computer literacy to the local population, as well as the Dada (Swahili for “sister”) cooperative, which creates job opportunities for Zanzibari women by involving them in producing and processing handmade cosmetics and food products such as jam, mustard, and sweets that are sold in Stone Town.
