This report reviews the role that safety
nets have played in Tanzania and explores options on how
they can contribute in accelerating poverty reduction in
Tanzania, focusing on mechanisms for giving transfers to the
poor. The report shows that given the large numbers of poor
in Tanzania and the country s limited resources, it is
essential that safety net interventions be well-targeted and
efficiently organized. Significant amounts of money are
already being spent on transfer programs in Tanzania, but
their impact has been limited. The report recommends that
for Tanzania, a single intervention will not be enough to
effectively tackle extreme poverty but a combination of
different type of cash transfer options is more likely to
make a difference in the strategy to reduce extreme poverty
and food insecurity. |
