Description:

: Local Governance in Tanzania: Observations from Six Councils 2002-2003
By Amon Chaligha, Florida Henjewele, Ambrose Kessy and Geoffrey Mwambe

REPOA’s Special Paper 07.22 comments on issues of governance for local government in Tanzania. Seven dimensions of political and administrative governance are discussed: local government autonomy, bottom-up planning, trust relations, citizens’ rights, corruption, gender mainstreaming in local government reform, and participation in local elections.

This paper provides a baseline for various dimensions of governance, using data from a survey 1,260 respondents from six case councils and also interviews with local council staff. The councils are Ilala Municipal Council, Iringa District Council, Mwanza City Council, Bagamoyo District Council, Moshi District Council and Kilosa District Council.
