Information Strategy and Documentation ARUSHA REGION INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN VOLUME FIVE INFORMATION STRATEGY AND DOCUMENTATION Prepared By THE REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT DIRECTORATE ARUSHA REGION With The Assistance Of THE ARUSHA PLANNING AND VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT Regional Commissioner's Office Arusha Region P.O. Box 3050 ARUSHA September 1981 THE UNITED REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA OFFICE OF THE PRIME MINISTER Regional Development Directorate, Arusha Telegrams: "REGCta" REGIONAL CCMMISSIONER'S OFFICE, P.O. Box 3050, Telephone: 2270-4 ARU SHA 18th Decenber, 1982 During the four year period beginning in July 1979 Arusha Region has been assisted by the USAID-sponsored Arusha Plannin6 and Village Development Project in the implementation of a large number of village development activities and in the preparation of the Region's Integrated Development Plan. It is a great pleasure to me that this Plan has now been completed and that I am able to write this short forward. The Arusha Region Integrated Development Plan includes a comprehensive description of the current status of development in the Region, an analysis of constraints to future development, and the strategies and priorities that the Region has adopted for guiding its future development. It also includes a review of projects in the Region's Five Year Development Plan as well as priority projects for long term investments. The preparation of the Plan has involved many meetings at the District Regional, and village level, and the goals, strategies, objectives and priority projects included in the Plan fully represent the decisions of the officials involved in those meetings. I am confident that the Plan will provide a very useful of frame reference for guiding the economic and social development of Arusha Region over both the medium-term five year period and the next 20 years. The of the total size identified projects and programmes is well beyond the normal scope of the financial resources of the Regional budget. Therefore, document one function of this is also to present the necessary facts and Justification for attracting assistance from potential sources outside of the Region to carry out priority projects which address the specified development objectives of the Region. The Plan is by no means exhustive, and there is room for interested organizations to explore other potential investments. Our Plan is therefore a base for future comprehensive planning. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Planning the Regional Office staff and the team from Development Alternatives, Inc., which undertook the implementation of the Arusha Flanning and Village Project, fr Development their hard work and many accomplishments and to thank all those Regional Government, Ministry, Parastatal, and Party officials who, in one way or another, gave them the necessary assistance and cooperation.

In addition to Volume Five, the plan includes: e Summary Report: Arusha Integrated Development Plan; * Volume One: Arusha Today: 1981, which outlines the current status, trends, and constraints in the region; e Volume Two: Arusha Region: Development Strategies and Priorities for the Next 20 Years, which presents the region's main policy decisions to guide development to the year 2000; o Volume Three: Arusha Region: Medium-Term Plan, which presents the projects for funding under the region's five year plan, including a detailed project proposal for the follow-on to the Arusha Planning and Village Development Project (APVDP); and e Vo.1.me Four: 1krusha Region: Long-Term Development Plan 19P. 2000, which outlines the region's primary long-term investment objectives and project proposals to help achieve these objectives. This planning exercise was supported by APVDP, which was initiated in July 1979. The project was sponsored by the Government of Tanzania and by the United States Agency for International Development (AID), with technical assistance provided by Development Alternatives, Inc. (DAI). APVDP combined the process of regional planning with the simultaneous development and implementation of village income­ generating and related development activities in the region's agricultural districts of Arumezu, Hanang, and Mbulu. The regional planning process provided a decision-making framework for 4 the region's future development, while the initiation of local development activities contributed to the quality of life in rural villages as well as added ideas and realism to the planning process. DEFINING AN INFORMATION STRATEGY Arusha Region has an area of about 82,000 km and a population of over 1 million people. Administratively, the region consists of seven districts (including Arusha town) with 463 villages. Starting with the Arusha Declaration, several government policies have been enacted that gradually devolve decision making to the region and its districts with the goal of improving the quality of life in rural villages. This devolution of decision making is particularly important in achieving this qoal in an area such as Arusha Region, for the policy allows development activities to be tailored to the particular circumstances of its diverse agro­ ecological zones, population, and ongoing development activities. The design of APVDP was built on these policies and conditions, attempting to help the region formulate a long-term development perspective and at the same time address the particular development constraints of various localities. Formulating an information strategy that meets the decision-makinq requirements for accomplishing both aims posed special problems. At the outset of APVDP, two inter-related sets of information requirements were identified: 9 The information required for the preparation of the Arusha Region Integrated Development Plan as a guide for intermediate- and long-term decision making; and e The information required for the design, implementation, and evaluation of development activities in the districts of Arumeru, Hanang, and Mbulu. 5 Although inter-related, each set of information requirements called for different approaches to the collection, analysis, and dissemination of information in order to be

While more than a dozen past international projects have identified appropriate postharvest technologies and recommended a variety of training, capacity building and small- scale infrastructure development (Kitinoja 2010), this was the first project to integrate all of this technology and information and offer a locally based solution. This unique pilot project for smallholder farmers in Arusha, Tanzania combined a wide variety of training programs, adaptive research and demonstrations of postharvest practices and services aimed at reducing losses and increasing shelf life. Via a postharvest shop set up nearby in Njiro, it will provide on-site ready access to the tools and supplies people need in order to reduce postharvest losses and improve market access and incomes for the smallholder farmers, women farmers and village level processors in the northern zone of Tanzania who are affiliated with established cooperatives and farmers associations near Arusha.
