REPOA Brief 6: Local Government Reform in Tanzania, 2002 - 2005:
Summary of Research Findings on Governance, Finance and Service Delivery
What impact has Tanzania's Local Government Reform Programme (LGRP) had on local governance, finances and service delivery? Have there been any changes over time in the provision of basic services to the public? What factors may explain distinct improvements in service delivery?
These are some of the questions addressed by the Formative Process Research Programme on Local Government Reform in Tanzania. REPOA's Brief 6 summarises some of the key findings of phase 1 (2002-2005) of this research programme, in particular lessons from three broad dimensions of reform: governance, finances, and service delivery.
