| Summary: | This evaluation of the Poverty
Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) and Poverty Reduction Growth
Facility (PRGF) processes in Tanzania was jointly undertaken
by the Operations Evaluation Department (OED) of the World
Bank and the Independent Evaluation Office (IEO) of the IMF.
The goal of the evaluation, as emphasized in the joint terms
of reference, is to inform the policies and internal
processes of the World Bank and the IMF, but not to evaluate
the performance of the government. The report is laid out as
follows: section two provides a background to the poverty
situation in Tanzania as well as the economic and political
context. The section also looks at the national strategies
and processes for policy formulation that preceded the
introduction of the PRSP and the PRGF. Section three
discusses the Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper process in
Tanzania, starting with a look at the relevance of the
process to the key development challenges facing the country
and then turns to the issue of how the underlying principles
of the PRSP have been applied. It concludes with an analysis
of the preliminary results. |
