One UN Tanzania

Since January 2007, Tanzania has been one of eight countries around the world piloting the Delivering as One UN reform initiative. Through the reform process, the UN in Tanzania aims to provide more coherent and effective support to national development priorities by strengthening its policy advisory role and technical assistance to the Government. The process of change jointly initiated during the Delivering as One pilot phase will continue in 2009 – 2010 and beyond to realize the full potential of the reform process. By Delivering as One, the UN hopes to see the Government succeed in reducing poverty through pro-poor growth and accelerating human development so that Tanzania can achieve the goals of its National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty in mainland and Zanzibar (MKUKUTA and MKUZA), and more broadly, attain the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015.
