Background

Agenda 21, agreed at the Rio Earth Summit in 1992, called on all countries to introduce national strategies for sustainable development (nssd). Since then, two international targets have been set: a Special Session of the UN General Assembly (Rio +5) set a target date of 2002 for nssds to be introduced; while the OECD  Development Assistance Committee (DAC) has set a target date of 2005 for nssds to be in the process of implementation. 

To assist in meeting these targets, the OECD/DAC initiated a project to develop policy guidance for development assistance agencies on the development and implementation of nssds. This project, 'OECD/DAC Donor-Developing Country Dialogues on National Strategies for Sustainable Development', involves a review of experience with nssds (and other strategies for environment and development) in a number of developing countries, on the basis of consultations with a range of stakeholders. The project focuses in particular on the kinds of processes and conditions required to make nssds work in practice.

The National Strategies for Sustainable Development (NSSDs) programme is an effort at looking into the status of various strategies formulated in the Country after the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The purpose is to establish the status of the strategies in terms of the content, approaches used to formulate them as well as the extent of implementation. It is anticipated that this process would result in developing guidelines on how Tanzania can formulate and implement better strategies for sustainable development and how donors can assist Tanzania in this initiative.

This report includes stakeholders’ contributions which were made during the workshops held in Mbeya from December 1 to 2nd, 2000 and Arusha from January 25 to 26th, 2001. The report is divided into seven sections. Section one which is the introduction is followed by the conceptual understanding and a presentation of the conditions for planning for sustainable development in section two and three respectively. Section four presents the planning framework and section five presents information used in planning. The relationships between sustainable development and donors is discussed in section six. Conclusions and recommendations are provided in section seven.
