Economic growth and economic governance

The United Nations Development Assistance Plan (UNDAP) is the business plan of 20 UN agencies, funds and programmes in Tanzania for the period July 2011 to June 2015. This 'One Plan' for Tanzania supports the achievement of the international development goals, the Millennium Declaration and related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), national development priorities which are consistent with the MDGs, and the realisation of international human rights in the country, including the right to humanitarian assistance for refugees. The implementation modalities within Delivering as One (DaO) ensure efficiency and reduction in costs whilst minimising unnecessary duplication of effort in interactions between the UN and national systems. The programme focuses on strengthening the country's enabling environment for the fulfilment of human rights and pro-poor growth, building national capacity to deliver basic services while increasing coverage and quality, and responding quickly through humanitarian assistance which is tied to long-term development objectives. With the exception of direct programme delivery in emergency and refugee assistance and school feeding (5 percent of UNDAP key actions), UNDAP strengthens and builds national capacities of state and non-state actors in policy and programme implementation, budgeting and strategic financial allocation, monitoring, evaluation and resource mobilisation. UNDAP supports and contributes to the three clusters of MKUKUTA and MKUZA II. In Cluster 1, UNDAP proposes support for capacity development aimed at strengthening the key drivers of inclusive pro-poor economic growth, including pro-poor sector policies, agro-productivity and manufacturing linkages enhancement, improved employment opportunities and productivity of low-income entrepreneurs and wage earners, greater human development outcomes from trade, environmental and climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies (23 percent of UNDAP total programme budget). The UN plan in Cluster 2 targets enhancements of sector partner capacities in Education, Health and Nutrition, HIV and AIDS, WASH and Social Protection for sustained and rapid achievement of the MDGs (42 percent of UNDAP total programme budget). The UN programme for Cluster 3 addresses the enabling environment for development - effective governance and delivery of public services, democracy, and further fulfilment of the GoT's international treaty obligations, emergency preparedness and response, and continued solution-focussed assistance to refugees (35 percent of UNDAP total programme budget).
