Summary: | Tanzania's National Strategy for
Growth and Reduction of Poverty (NSGRP) sets an ambitious
target of 6 to 8 percent annual economic growth to achieve
rapid reduction in poverty. This report focuses on three
issues that are central to the success of Tanzania's
poverty reduction efforts: 0 what factors explain
Tanzania's recent acceleration in economic growth; has
the accelerated economic growth translated into reduced
poverty; and what must be done to sustain economic growth
that is pro-poor. The report presents evidence from the
macroeconomic, sectoral, and firm and household levels that
shed light on these questions. The report is presented in
two volumes. Volume I summarizes the main findings and
recommendations. Volume II contains the main report. |
