These reforms were intended to relinquish substantial powers and resources to districts to improve the development of the health sector. Little is known about the impact of decentralisation on recruitment and distribution of health workers at the district level.

According to the country's Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security the food deficit in Tanzania is linked to the failure of short rains between August and November 2005 which account for 30% of annual harvests in the country. A Rapid Vulnerability Assessment carried out by the government, WFP, and NGOs in early February identified 564,000 of the total impacted population as being destitute and in need of free food distribution. To date, the government of Tanzania has not declared a national emergency but WFP and NGOs are concerned that government resources are insufficient to meet the urgent needs of this vulnerable population. The long rainy season is now expected between March and May, but if it fails or comes too late, the number of people needing food relief could go up. ACT member the Christian Council of Tanzania (CCT) is appealing for assistance to provide food relief to approximately 80,500 of the most destitute people in seven regions in rural Tanzania, to be distributed through its member churches the Anglican Church of Tanzania (ACT), the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania (ELCT), the African Inland Church of Tanzania (AIC) and the Mennonite Church of Tanzania (MEN) stationed across the country.

The material has been prepared at the request of CICRED, as part of its contribution to the objectives of the World Population Year, 1974. In common with other developing countries of Africa, the East African countries are becoming acutely aware of the importance of rapid population growth and its significance to the attainment of development objectives. It has become increasingly clear that with the current rates of growth and the limited resources, the burden of socio-economic development programmes has become more serious. The search for alternative strategies to development must therefore focus attention on the impact of accelerating growth rate which leads to retardation of the rate of economic and social development.

A series of geographical barriers led to a higher concentration of forced migrants in some parts of the region relative to others, resulting in a natural experiment. Using panel data (pre and post forced migration shock), we find that greater exposure to the refugee shock resulted in Tanzanians having a lower likelihood of working outside the household as employees. However, employees more affected by the shock had a higher probability of being in professional occupations and being part of a pensions program.

  • Social and Economic Transformation in Tanzania and South Korea: Ujamaa and Saemaul Undong in the 1970S Compared
    Social and Economic Transformation in Tanzania and South Korea: Ujamaa and Saemaul Undong in the 1970s Compared Yong Yoon and Robert Mudida Julius Nyerere and Park Chung-hee carried out ambitious and important social and economic reforms for rural development in the 1970s in Tanzania and South Korea, respectively. The reforms not only affected the livelihood of rural people but also had long- reaching impact on the entire nations. Despite the visionary and generally benevolent rulers’ policy initiatives, the economic results of the rural development programs in the two countries cannot be more different. This paper contrasts and explores the importance of the nature of the transformation strategy and processes, as brought about by differences in leadership as well as in political philosophies and developmental goals, as a possible explanation for the drastically different economic outcomes of Tanzania’s Ujamaa and South Korea’s Saemaul Undong.

  • Policies and Legal Frameworks for Marine Protected Areas
    Policies and legal frameworks for Marine Protected Areas governance in Tanzania mainland: their potential and limitations for achieving conservation and livelihood goals. Bigeyo Neke Kuboja United Nations-Nippon Foundation of Japan Fellowship Programme December 2013 Abstract The focus of this study is territorial sea marine protected areas governance in Tanzania mainland. The study describes and analyses the limitations and potential for existing policies and legal framework for managing these systems to better integrate conservation and livelihood goals; by using Mafia Island Marine Park (MIMP), which is a marine protected area (MPA), located on Mafia Island as a case study. The study examines Tanzanian legislations and international instruments that are relevant for MPA governance and their applicability in MIMP. There are about 33 marine protected areas along the Tanzanian coastline. The coastline is endowed by numerous small near shore islands and islets as well as several large islands, coral reefs, mangrove forests, sea grass beds and sandy beaches which support plentiful marine organisms as spawning, breeding, feeding, and growth habitats that are worth to be managed and used sustainably. The coastline extends approximately 1400km in north-south direction from the Tanzania-Kenya border in the north to the Tanzania-Mozambique border in the south. Several previous reports have identified most of the governance challenges facing coastal and marine resources including MPAs in Tanzania. Therefore, through utilization of secondary data, understandings into the MPA management/governance and by applying lessons from other developing nations coastal settings this study highlighted some mechanism on how the existing policies and legal frameworks can be used to improve the situation on the ground for sustainably exploiting and managing coastal and marine resources of Tanzania.

Partners Funders How to cite this report: Development Corridors Partnership (2019). Development Corridors in Tanzania - A scoping study. Compiled by P.K.T. Munishi, J.J. Kashaigili, N. Chilagane, P. Lyimo, R.E. Pallangyo and L. Kolukwi. Sokoine University of Agriculture, Morogoro, Tanzania. E-published by UNEP-WCMC, Cambridge, UK. Executive summary This report presents the findings of the scoping study conducted to analyse the status and challenges of development corridors in Tanzania. The overall objective of this scoping study is to provide a holistic view of the concept of development corridors and how these are implemented in Tanzania. The scoping study is not intended to provide a comprehensive and detailed account of development corridors in Tanzania, but rather to identify capacity and research gaps on which the Development Corridors Partnership could focus to assist sustainable implementation of development corridors in Tanzania. Moreover, the scoping study provides an initial assessment of the status, actors involved and key challenges in the different identified development corridors. The study further identifies and describes other relevant policy areas and development strategies and plans, institutions and organisations closely linked to the implementation of development corridors in Tanzania. A literature review, stakeholder analysis and a critical review of relevant policies and legislation were undertaken to identify actors, policy and legislative frameworks relevant to development corridors in Tanzania.
