Why this project?

NGOs in Tanzania have received little recognition as valuable partners in development and continue to suffer from government suspicion and marginalisation. Attempts by the NGOs to play a more active role in influencing state policy reforms is hampered by restricted participation and lack of appropriate information.

What:

This project aims at collecting reviewing and re-packaging existing knowledge and information on EAC regional integration for online/offline dialogue; and Enhancing a Knowledge base of civil society actors for evidence-based advocacy.

How:

The TMA Tanzania PSO and CSO Programme will support TANGO in creating awareness about regional integration and nurturing a positive attitude towards it among Tanzanians.
