    The following educational workshop and handbook on albinism, as a part of a project called Mi.Fi.Ma (Mikono na Fikira ya Maendeleo - Hand and thought for development), aim at providing teachers, educators, other NGO activists, political representatives and people with albinism with biomedical, cultural, sociological and anthropological information and data on albinism and the population with albinism living in Kilolo district, Iringa region and Tanzania at large. The workshop and the handbook intend to shed lights, on the one hand, on the biomedical and scientific explanations of albinism and, on the other hand, on the social and anthropological understanding of the congenital condition in Kilolo district (Iringa region) and Tanzania at large. The first part shows respectively: the biomedical classification of albinism, vision and skin issues of the individuals with the congenital condition as well as the genetic explanations of the congenital condition. The second part of the handbook focuses instead on an analysis of the social problems, in terms of inclusion/exclusion issues, that people with albinism have to face during their own daily life. While stigma and marginalization are social issues that have been discovered as primary problems for the inclusion of these individuals in the Tanzanian society, inclusion of the population with albinism could be and is improved through family and education support.
