Bio diesel: No experience in Tanzania neither in the region. Traditional use of solid bio-energy will continue for the Gaseous bio energy: foreseeable future due to lack of affordable alternatives. More than 6000 biogas plants built (Pilot biogas plant with sisal waste as feedstock for electricity generation in a Improved bio energy production and use. private farm under development).

Dr. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli President of the United Republic of Tanzania “Statistics are very vital in the development of any country particularly when they are of good quality since they enable government to understand the needs of its people, set goals and formulate development programmes and monitor their implementation” H.E. Dr. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli the President of the United Republic of Tanzania at the foundation stone-laying ceremony for the new NBS offices in Dodoma December, 2017. What is the importance of statistics in your daily life? “Statistical information is very important as it helps a person to do things in an organizational way with greater precision unlike when one does not have. In my business, for example, statistics help me know where I can get raw materials, get to know the number of my customers and help me prepare products accordingly. Indeed, the numbers show the trend of my business which allows me to predict the future. My customers are both locals and foreigners who yearly visit the region. In June every year, I gather information from various institutions which receive foreign visitors here in Dodoma. With estimated number of visitors in hand, it gives me ample time to prepare products for my clients’ satisfaction. In terms of my daily life, Statistics help me in understanding my daily household needs hence make proper expenditures.” Mr. Kulwa James Zimba, Artist, Sixth street Dodoma.”.

  • Basic Demographic and Socio-Economic Profile
    The United Republic of Tanzania Basic Demographic and Socio-Economic Profile National Bureau of Statistics Ministry of Finance Dar es Salaam and Office of Chief Government Statistician Ministry of State, President ‟s Office, State House and Good Governance Zanzibar April, 2014 UNITED REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA, ADMINISTRATIVE BOUNDARIES Basic Demographic and Socio-Economic Profile Foreword The 2012 Population and Housing Census (PHC) for the United Republic of Tanzania was carried out on the 26th August, 2012. This was the fifth Census after the Union of Tanganyika and Zanzibar in 1964. Other censuses were carried out in 1967, 1978, 1988 and 2002. The 2012 PHC, like previous censuses, will contribute to the improvement of quality of life of Tanzanians through the provision of current and reliable data for policy formulation, development planning and service delivery as well as for monitoring and evaluating national and international development frameworks. The 2012 PHC is unique as the collected information will be used in monitoring and evaluating the Development Vision 2025 for Tanzania Mainland and Zanzibar Development Vision 2020, Five Year Development Plan 2011/12–2015/16, National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty (NSGRP) commonly known as MKUKUTA and Zanzibar Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty (ZSGRP) commonly known as MKUZA. The Census will also provide information for the evaluation of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in 2015. The Poverty Monitoring Master Plan, which is the monitoring tool for NSGRP and ZSGRP, mapped out core indicators for poverty monitoring against the sequence of surveys, with the 2012 PHC being one of them. Several of these core indicators for poverty monitoring are measured directly from the 2012 PHC.

  • Lake Manyara Watershed Assessment
    USFS - Greg Bevenger Photo/ Lake Manyara Watershed Assessment Progress Report December 2003 Lake Manyara Watershed Assessment: Progress Report—December 2003 1 I. LAKE MANYARA WATERSHED ASSESSMENT Overview African Wildlife Foundation (AWF) has initiated a detailed assessment of the Lake Manyara watershed, which is one of two catchment basins that sustain the Tarangire-Manyara ecosystem, in northern Tanzania. Through a partnership with the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), AWF is working to protect forest, soil and water resources in important African landscapes, through its African Heartland program. To address concerns of habitat fragmentation and environmental degradation within the Lake Manyara watershed AWF has partnered with local stakeholders and the USFS to conduct an assessment of the watershed. AWF is leading the assessment, which includes development of a GIS and associated database, and compilation of relevant information related to the Lake Manyara watershed. USFS is providing technical assistance in watershed science, as well as financial support. AWF is building upon the considerable work that has already been undertaken by partners in the region1, in order to improve the conservation of natural resources in this important landscape. AWF and USFS are conducting this assessment through a process that aims to characterize ecosystem elements from a watershed perspective, identify key issues and problems in the watershed, and ultimately provide management recommendations. Masai Steppe Heartland The assessment is being implemented through AWF’s African Heartland program, which is a collaborative, landscape-level management approach to conserving Africa’s unique wildlife resources. Heartlands are large areas of exceptional natural value where AWF works with a variety of partners, including local people, governments and other resource users to ensure these landscapes are prioritized for conservation and are kept ecologically and economically viable.

The national parks and reserves in this region include Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Arusha National Park, the Loliondo Game Controlled Area, and part of Lake Manyara National Park. Remains of 600-year-old stone structures are found at Engaruka, just off the dirt road between Mto wa Mbu and Lake Natron. With a HDI of 0.721, Arusha is one among the most developed regions of Tanzania. History Much of the present area of Arusha Region used to be Maasai land. The Maasai are still the dominant community in the region. their influence is reflected in the present names of towns, regional culture, cuisine, and geographical features.

    The Whole Village Project Village Reports for Engaruka, Migombani, Naitolia, and Selela in Monduli District July 2010 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The village surveys conducted in Monduli District, Tanzania in 2009 were a success due to the efforts and contributions of local government officials, organizations, and individuals, not the least of whom are the community members themselves. We would like to specifically acknowledge the participation and partnership of Savannas Forever Tanzania, National Institute of Medical Research (NIMR), and Tanzania Wildlife Research Institute (TAWIRI) in the implementation of the village- level quantitative and qualitative surveys in Tanzania in particular: Majory Kaziya, Fenela Msangi, Edward Sandet, Felix Adolf, David Mollel, Glory Aseri, Jovit Felix, Esupat Kimirei, Rose Muro, Pendo Samson, Steven Temu and Gerald Mollel. Savannas Forever Tanzania designed the surveys with technical assistance from Monique Borgerhoff Mulder from the University of California-Davis; Kari Hartwig and Deborah Levison, both from the University of Minnesota; and Esther Ngadaya from NIMR. The survey would not have been possible without the hard work and commitment of the survey team, including supervisors, interviewers, and data analyzers, in Tanzania and Minnesota, USA. Thank you to the staff from Savannas Forever Tanzania, NIMR, and Selian Hospital for collecting the survey data; thank you to Jennifer Simmelink and Hilary Caldis at the University of Minnesota for data analysis; and thank you to Kari Hartwig, Matt Sobek, and Joe Ritter from the University of Minnesota, for providing supervision during the process.
