Iringa Region Socio-Economic Profile, 2013
The United Republic of Tanzania IRINGA REGION SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE, 2013 October, 2013 The United Republic of Tanzania IRINGA REGION SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE, 2013 Jointly prepared Ministry of Finance, National Bureau of Statistics and Iringa Regional Secretariat National Bureau of Statistics Dar es Salaam October, 2013 Iringa Region Socio-Economic Profile, 2013 Foreword The goals of Tanzania‟s Development Vision 2025 are in line with United Nation‟s Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) 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 Tservices 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 pass standard seven examinations join Form One. The food situation is still precarious; infant and maternal mortality rates continue are 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. -
