Karibuni! Welcome!
Welcome to the Website of the United
Nations (UN) in Tanzania
The UN family works side by side with the
Government and the people of Tanzania to create an environment where everyone
can participate and benefit from the development process.
As one of
eight countries to pilot UN reform, the UN in Tanzania aims to provide more
coherent and effective support to national priorities. There is a need for the
UN to reposition itself to remain relevant and deliver more efficiently in the
dynamic and changing aid environment in Tanzania.
The former UN
Secretary-General appointed a High-level Panel on System-wide Coherence, whose
Report of November 2006 conveys the challenges facing the UN and the need to Deliver as One for better results. The recommendations of the Panel on One UN
Programme, One UN Budget, One UN Office and One UN Leader form the basis of the
reform process in Tanzania.
Tanzania requested to be a pilot country
through the then Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation, Dr. Asha-Rose
Migiro, who is now the UN Deputy Secretary-General.
The website of the UN
Country Team in Tanzania highlights the collaborative efforts and joint response
of the United Nations to help better address Tanzania’s priority humanitarian
and development challenges. In doing so, the UN Country Team aims to support
national efforts to help reduce poverty, to encourage pro-poor growth and to
accelerate human development so that Tanzania can both achieve the goals set for
itself through the MKUKUTA and the MKUZA, and more broadly, attain the
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015.
Thank you for your interest
in our work,
Oscar Fernandez-Taranco,
United Nations Resident
Coordinator in Tanzania
