By end of September 2011 the commitments under contracts awarded was about US $ 105 million. The recruitment of consultants and contractors, even though delayed, is now completed for (i) planned contracts under the regional airports and Emergency Road Repair components, and (ii) some contracts under the component for Design and Rehabilitation of Trunk Roads. The Bids for the only remaining two major works contracts (in the original project) i.e. Bids for the Korogwe - Same Lot 1 and 2 road works contracts (about US $ 90 million) were opened on February 3, 2011. The Bid Evaluation process has not yet been concluded primarily as a result of the due diligence associated with post-qualification of contractors under the two lots. These three components of the project account for 96 % of the original project credit allocations. Competition under the contracts has been satisfactory, and the lowest evaluated bids as well as the highest scoring proposals are generally within appraisal estimates. The additional financing (AF) for an amount of US $ 50 million was approved on June 30, 2011 and the Financing Agreement (FA) was signed on September 2, 2011. The procurement processing under the AF is progressing well and the Bids for the major works contract, which accounts for 92 % of the AF have been opened on October 11, 2010. The AF is yet to be made effective and it is expected that the effectiveness conditions will be met within the first 90 days of FA signing. Public Disclosure Copy The emergency repair of parts of the national roads and bridges damaged by floods in 2009/2010 has been progressing well with the implementation of 101 small contracts in 20 regions completed. As of the end of September 2011, about 585 Km of roads had received emergency maintenance while 212 culverts were reconstructed. Contractors are under mobilization in three airports and one road major works contracts. Consultants have been mobilized and start providing services in two supervision and two design services contracts. The recruitment of consultants is delayed and is at early stages for most of the technical assistants and studies included under the Components C, (Improvement of Road Safety Management), and D (Promotion of Public Private Partnerships), of the project.

Through education and demonstration, the Institute has taught improved farming practices to approximately 5,000 smallholder farmers in 60 villages in the Iringa Region of Tanzania as part of the Institute’s Companion Village Pro- ject (CVP). Access to credit through an accompanying Mi- crofinance Institute allowed the small farmers to take ad- vantage of the good farming practices. Yields of crops were increased, and the smallholder farmer’s vision of what was possible has been expanded. Based on the observations of government and religious leaders who travel the region, the quality of life in these remote villages has improved.

Remembering the Dark Years (1964–1975) in Contemporary Zanzibar Marie-Aude Fouéré French Institute for Research in Africa (IFRA), Nairobi, Kenya In the islands of Zanzibar (Unguja and Pemba), the memories of violence and repression perpetrated by revolutionaries and the state from 1964 to 1975 have long been banished from the public space. The official narrative of the 1964 Revolution and the first phase of the post-revolutionary periodi developed and propagated by the Revolutionary Government of Zanzibar, through a control over the production, transmission, and circulation of ideas, combined with repressive measures against dissenting voices, led people to keep their memories private. The official injunction calling for silence did not bringabout a forgetting of the past, but rather contributed to the clandestine transmission and reconstruction of fragments of individual, familial, and community memories within private circles.

    United Republic of Tanzania The United Republic of Tanzania Jointly prepared by Ministry of Finance and Planning, National Bureau of Statistics and Njombe Regional Secretariat Njombe Region National Bureau of Statistics Njombe Dodoma November, 2020 Njombe Region Socio-Economic Profile, 2018 Foreword The goals of Tanzania’s Development Vision 2025 are in line with United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and are pursued through the National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty (NSGRP) or MKUKUTA II. The major goals are to achieve a high-quality livelihood for the people, attain good governance through the rule of law and develop a strong and competitive economy. To monitor the progress in achieving these goals, there is need for timely, accurate data and information at all levels. Problems especially in rural areas are many and demanding. Social and economic services require sustainable improvement. The high primary school enrolment rates recently attained have to be maintained and so is the policy of making sure that all pupils who passed Primary School Leaving Examination must join form one. The Nutrition situation is still precarious; infant and maternal mortality rates continue to be high and unemployment triggers mass migration of youths from rural areas to the already overcrowded urban centres. Added to the above problems, is the menace posed by HIV/AIDS, the prevalence of which hinders efforts to advance into the 21st century of science and technology. The pandemic has been quite severe among the economically active population leaving in its wake an increasing number of orphans, broken families and much suffering. AIDS together with environmental deterioration are problems which cannot be ignored.

    Tanzania MFR Summary Report

    TANZANIA August 20, 2018 Market Fundamentals Summary KEY MESSAGES The objective of this report is to document the basic market context Figure 1. Map of Tanzania for staple food and livestock production and marketing in Tanzania. The information presented is based on desk research, a field assessment using rapid rural appraisal techniques, and a consultation workshop with stakehoders in Tanzania. Findings from this report will inform regular market monitoring and analysis in Tanzania. Maize, rice, sorghum, millet, pulses (beans and peas), cassava and bananas (plantains) are the main staple foods in Tanzania. Maize is the most widely consumed staple in Tanzania and the country imports significant quantities of wheat to meet local demand for wheat flour. Consumption of other staples varies across the country based on local supply and demand dynamics. Cattle, goat and sheep are the major sources of red meat consumed in Tanzania. Tanzania’s cropping calendar follows two distinct seasonal patterns. The Msimu season covers unimodal rainfall areas in the south, west and central parts of the country while the Masika and Vuli seasons Source: FEWS NET (2018). cover bi-modal rainfall areas in the north and eastern parts of the country (Figure 5). Figure 2. Tanzania’s average self sufficiency status for key staple foods (2014/15 – 2017/18) As a member of the East Africa Community (EAC) and the Southern African Development Community (SADC), Tanzania plays an important role in regional staple food trade across East and Southern Africa (Annex III). The country is generally a surplus producer of staple cereals and pulses, and exports significant quantities of these commodities to neighboring countries in East and Southern Africa inlcuding Kenya, Malawi, Zambia, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and the Democratice Republic of Congo (Figure 2).
