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 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.

  • Policies and Legal Frameworks for Marine Protected Areas
    Policies and legal frameworks for Marine Protected Areas governance in Tanzania mainland: their potential and limitations for achieving conservation and livelihood goals. Bigeyo Neke Kuboja United Nations-Nippon Foundation of Japan Fellowship Programme December 2013 Abstract The focus of this study is territorial sea marine protected areas governance in Tanzania mainland. The study describes and analyses the limitations and potential for existing policies and legal framework for managing these systems to better integrate conservation and livelihood goals; by using Mafia Island Marine Park (MIMP), which is a marine protected area (MPA), located on Mafia Island as a case study. The study examines Tanzanian legislations and international instruments that are relevant for MPA governance and their applicability in MIMP. There are about 33 marine protected areas along the Tanzanian coastline. The coastline is endowed by numerous small near shore islands and islets as well as several large islands, coral reefs, mangrove forests, sea grass beds and sandy beaches which support plentiful marine organisms as spawning, breeding, feeding, and growth habitats that are worth to be managed and used sustainably. The coastline extends approximately 1400km in north-south direction from the Tanzania-Kenya border in the north to the Tanzania-Mozambique border in the south. Several previous reports have identified most of the governance challenges facing coastal and marine resources including MPAs in Tanzania. Therefore, through utilization of secondary data, understandings into the MPA management/governance and by applying lessons from other developing nations coastal settings this study highlighted some mechanism on how the existing policies and legal frameworks can be used to improve the situation on the ground for sustainably exploiting and managing coastal and marine resources of Tanzania.
