One pays a visit to preserved game parks and other historical sites in a country at their own expense as part of relaxation, enjoyment and fulfilment of a dream or for business purposes. As a result they contribute to the government revenue. In Tanzania, tourism accounts for 25 percent of total export revenue and is increasing at the rate of 8 percent per year. The main objective of this study was to establish the role of tourism in local community development and understand the constraints to community members’ participation in local communities adjacent and within the tourism sites. The study used mixed research method where both primary and secondary data were used in analyzing the linkage between tourism activities and their impact on the local communities adjacent to and within tourism sites in Arusha region. The study areas were the villages around Arusha National Park, Manyara, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Olduvai Gorge and Tarangire National Park in Tanzania. Primary data was collected through interviews, structured questionnaires, and focus group discussions. The secondary data was gathered through a literature survey of relevant textbooks, reports, legislations and journals. The findings of the study show that tourism resources contribute to local community development specifically on the educational and infrastructural development. Furthermore, the findings revealed that while a relationship which shows positive perceptions of increased tourism resources contributing to poverty reduction and local community development is strong, the local communities are not accessing the tourism market to increase their earning. Since fiscal decentralization practices in Tanzania was instituted to bring about decision-making process at the grassroots level and activate economic development, it also unfolds new challenges and contradictions, specifically to local communities within and around the tourism sites in Arusha region. These need to be addressed effectively. It was recommended that the government of Tanzania should take a leading role to encourage performance of tourism resources on local communities’ development process within and around the national parks in Arusha region through an emphasis on economic fiscal decentralization policy implementation. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS DECLARATION (A)........................................................................................................ i DECLARATION (B) ....................................................................................................... ii APPROVAL SHEET ...................................................................................................... iii DEDICATION…… ........................................................................................................ iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENT ................................................................................................v LIST OF ACRONYMS .............................................................................................. vi ABSTRACT……… ....................................................................................................... vii CHAPTER ONE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE .............................................................1 1.0 Introduction .................................................................................................................1 1.1 Background to the Study .............................................................................................1 1.2 Statement of the Problem ............................................................................................4 1.3 Significance of the Study ............................................................................................6 1.4 Purpose of the Study ...................................................................................................7

  • 2012 Population and Housing Census
    The United Republic of Tanzania 2012 POPULATION AND HOUSING CENSUS Population Distribution by Administrative Areas National Bureau of Statistics Ministry of Finance Dar es Salaam and Office of Chief Government Statistician President’s Office, Finance, Economy and Development Planning Zanzibar March , 2013 Foreword The 2012 Population and Housing Census (PHC) for 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 others, will contribute to the improvement of quality of life of Tanzanians through the provision of current and reliable data for development planning, policy formulation and services delivery as well as for monitoring and evaluating national and international development frameworks. The 2012 PHC is unique in the sense that, the information collected 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 Census being one of them. Several of these core indicators for poverty monitoring will be measured directly from the 2012 Census.
