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.

    IK: Other Ways of Knowing Peer Reviewed Challenges in Harnessing Indigenous Knowledge Systems through Creation of Employment for Rural Women in Tanzania: The Case Study of Barabaig Volume: 4 Pg 68-94 Leather Products in Manyara Region John M. Mtui, PhD Lecturer, University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania This study examines opportunities and challenges in harnessing indigenous knowledge (IK) for employment creation and poverty reduction in rural Tanzania. The study is underpinned by literature review and descriptive analysis focusing on leather products made by Barabaig women in Hanang, Tanzania. During the study, a sample of one hundred households was selected and interviewed. Data were collected from the administered interviews that were structured like a questionnaire. The literature details the challenges IK faces, including: the threat of extinction due to lack of recording, with much focus on IK that has a direct cash benefit only and the ignored “non-cash” knowledge; considered as part of a residual, traditional, and backward way of life that is easily brushed off on the ground that it cannot be trusted; and not inclusive. The IK drive in Tanzania lacks one unifying policy. Inadequate tanning training, expensive modern tanning inputs, low quality hides and skins associated with poor animal husbandry, poor quality local inputs and tools, low quality output, and lack of markets are among the inhibiting factors faced by Barabaig women using IK to create leather products. Poor roads, inadequate supply of clean water and health services, and lack of electricity is another set of hurdles Barabaig women face. Apart from leather products, Barabaig women also produce other traditional products such as blankets, shawls, bracelets, and neck and waist ornaments.

  • 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.

  • Challenges Facing Food Processing Mses in Tanzania
    Challenges Facing Food Processing MSEs in Tanzania A Qualitative Case Study of the Sunflower Oil Industry in Babati, Manyara Author: Mikaela Ekblom Supervisor: Vesa-Matti Loiske Södertörn University | School of Science, Technology and Environmental Studies Bachelor's thesis, 15 ECTS Environment and Development | Spring 2016 1 Abstract Food processing micro- and small-scale enterprises (MSEs) play an important role in the national economic development of Tanzania. Though many of them have great growth potential, they face a number of constraints hindering further development, and large amounts of cooking oil are imported each year. The aim of thesis has therefore been to identify and analyse the different factors affecting these MSEs in order to find out which the major growth challenges are. The case study is mainly based on individual semi-structured interviews with sunflower oil processors and farmers in Babati districts, conducted in February and March 2016, and earlier research and studies on the topic of MSE growth make up the theoretical framework used for analysis of the data. The findings show that there are indeed numerous challenges facing these processors, and the major constraint was found to be lack of capital; an issue causing or worsening a majority of the other challenges at hand. Other problems are related to raw material, equipment & electricity for processing, regulations, market accessibility, and competition. These obstacles need to be overcome in order to enable the industry's expansion within and outside of Tanzania, and further research is recommended. Keywords: Agribusiness; Micro and small-scale businesses; Firm growth; Food value chain; Agro-processing Cover photo: Sunflower farm, Babati © Mikaela Ekblom 2016-02-16 Acknowledgements Stockholm, June 2016 Before getting started, I would like to take this opportunity to show my gratitude to everyone who made this thesis possible.

  • 13. Laddunnuri Maternal Mortatlity Tanzaniax
    International Journal of Caring Sciences 2013 May - August Vol 6 Issue 2 236 . O R I G I N A L P A P E R .r . Maternal Mortality in Rural Areas of Dodoma Region, Tanzania: a Qualitative Study Madan Mohan Laddunuri, PhD Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Dodoma University, Dodoma, Tanzania Coresponcence: Dr Madan Mohan Laddunuri, Post Box 259 Dodoma university, Dodoma, Tanzania. E-mail [email protected] Abstract Background: A major public health concern in Tanzania is the high rate of maternal deaths as the estimated Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) is 454 per 100,000 live births (TDHS, 2010). The main objective of the present study was to find out the contributing factors to maternal mortality in rural areas of Dodoma region of Tanzania. Methodology: The verbal autopsy technique was used to reconstruct “the road to maternal death.” A structured open-ended questionnaire was developed on the basis of the “three delays” model: delay in the decision to seek care, delay in arrival at a health facility and delay in the provision of adequate care. The sample comprised of 20 cases, 4 for each district of Dodoma. Data were collected by conducting in-depth interviews with close relatives of the deceased women and those who accompanied the women (neighbours) during the time the illness developed to death. Results: There was delay in receiving appropriate medical care and that eventually lead to the death of the pregnant woman, due to underestimation of the severity of the complication, bad experience with the health care system, delay in reaching an appropriate medical facility, lack of transportation, or delay in receiving appropriate care after reaching to the hospital.
