  • ABSTRACT Colonialism and the Development of the Tanzanian
    ABSTRACT Colonialism and the Development of the Tanzanian Health System Harrison Chase Gottlich Director: Dr. Sara Alexander This thesis examines Colonialism’s lasting effects on the formation of the Tanzanian Healthcare system. Identified key characteristics of the Colonial Health Model include regional specialization, direct taxation, hospital-based care, and physician leadership. The effects of these characteristics are evaluated considering post-independence domestic policies and international health movements, including the 1978 Alma Ata Declaration and the 1993 World Bank Report. A finding of this thesis is that an overreliance on the Colonial Health model has stifled the development of the Tanzanian Healthcare System. Three historically informed recommendations are submitted to support the development of a preventive-focused health model more in line with the 1967 Arusha Declaration and the 1969-1974 Second Tanzanian Development Plan.

  • Ujamaa Urbanism: Tanga Tanzania
    UJAMAA URBANISM: TANGA TANZANIA The exhibition at the Nordic Pavilion at la Biennale di Venezia has been titled “FORMS OF FREEDOM: African Independence and Nordic Models”. The exhibition will explore and document how modern Nordic architecture was an integral part of Nordic aid to East Africa in the 1960s and 1970s. The resulting architecture is of a scope and quality that has not previously been comprehensively studied or exhibited. One of the projects in the exhibition is Masterplan for Tanga Intro: African Independence and Nordic Models The liberation of Tanzania, Kenya and Zambia in the 1960s coincided with the founding of state development aid in the Nordic countries, where there was widespread belief that the social democratic model could be exported, translated, and used for nation-building, modernization and welfare in Africa. The leaders of the new African states wanted partners without a murky colonial past, and established solid bonds with the Nordic countries, built on a mutual belief in progress. During a few intense years in the 60s and 70s, Nordic architects contributed to the rapid process of modernization in this part of Africa. These young architects found themselves in the field between building freedom and finding freedom: Building freedom denotes nation-building through city planning, infrastructure and industry, and institutions for education, health, and state bureaucracy, whereas finding freedom points at the modernist, experimental free area that emerged from the encounter between Nordic aid and African nation-building. Ujamaa Urbanism: Tanga Tanzania “Planning should embody the ideology of the country”. Tanga Master Plan 1975-95. Main Report, Dar es Salaam, 1975 Established as the Tanzanian variant of socialist ideology, Ujamaa was intended to transform a tribal society into an egalitarian, modern welfare society.

    Tanzania 2018 Crime & Safety Report According to the current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication, Tanzania has been assessed as Level 2 – Exercise increased caution. Overall Crime and Safety Situation U.S. Embassy Dar es Salaam does not assume responsibility for the professional ability or integrity of the persons or firms appearing in this report. The ACS Unit cannot recommend a particular individual or location and assumes no responsibility for the quality of service provided. The U.S. Department of State has assessed Dar es Salaam as being a CRITICAL-threat location for crime directed at or affecting official U.S. government interests. Please review OSAC’s Tanzania-specific webpage for original OSAC reporting, consular messages, and contact information, some of which may be available only to private-sector representatives with an OSAC password. Tanzania has unique challenges domestically and regionally. Urban areas with the greatest populations (Dar es Salaam, Arusha, Mwanza, Stone Town) are confronted with national security challenges, specifically crime and terrorism, that require mitigation strategies. Crime Threats Most incidents include non-violent property crime and both violent and non-violent street crime. Street crime is rampant in urban areas, including in Dar es Salaam. Most incidents are crimes of opportunity, targeting people carrying bags, backpacks, computer cases, cameras, purses or items left in plain sight inside a vehicle. Most of these snatch-and-grab crimes are committed by unarmed assailants. Assailants tend to operate in small groups where only one person may overtly take part in a mugging.
