Handout 5.1: Implementation of the Development Vision

2025

The implementation of the Development Vision 2025 should fundamentally embody the

following attributes:

• Developmental mindset and competitiveness

o In order for the Tanzania society to attain this level, there is need to:

 Ensure existence of sound economic management

 Increasingly promote investment in infrastructure by involving government,

private sector and various communities of the society

 Reactivate the commitment to self-reliance, and recultivate resourcefulness

and savings culture in order to curb and overcome the donor dependency

syndrome which has led many Tanzanians into unprecedented apathy;

 Transform the education system so that it can develop the human capital in

tandem with the socio-economic changes envisaged in the Vision 2025. The

curriculum at various levels of education should be overhauled alongside the

needs of implementing the vision 2025

• Democratization and popular Participation

o In order for the Tanzania Society to reach this level, there is a need to:

 Create an open and democratic society that provides equal opportunity to every

person. This entails creation of an active and participatory civil society in the

articulation of its needs and in taking pride to fulfill its societal responsibilities;

 Sensitize society to use the democratic election mechanism at its disposal to

elect good incorruptible and responsible leaders. Leaders with personal

integrity, committed to the development of society and to the pursuit of the

interests and welfare of the whole society;

 Improve public service delivery by ensuring that public servants are

accountable to the people;

 Permit a greater role for local actors to own and drive the process of their

development. Local people know their problems best and are better placed to

judge what they need, what is possible to achieve and how it can effectively be

achieved;

 Decentralize the political administration and the fiscal structure roles and

responsibilities on the basis of the principle of subsidiarity to commit

individuals, households, communities and local government to the pursuit of

the common Vision goal;

• Monitoring, Evaluation and Review

o This framework is essential in order to:

__________________________________________________________________________________________

PST 06209 Enterpreneurship NTA Level 6 Semester 2 Facilitator Guide

38

Ensure that the process of evaluation and monitoring is used to track down

progress towards the realization of the Development Vision goals. The best

way to track down such progress is to start with ~ The envisioned end-result

and work backwards to map out the milestones;

 Develop specific performance benchmarks and measurable outputs to assist in

monitoring the process of implementing the Development Vision goals;

 Review the Development Vision in every five years so to gauge how the

nation is faring and what adjustments need to be made as part of a regular

evaluation and monitoring exercise.

 Establish an efficient system of information and communication to facilitate

timely monitoring and evaluation and ensuring a synergy between the various

actors in society.

• Governance and the Rule of Law

o Existence of this framework requires the society to:

 Build the capacity of the public sector, civil society, media, parliament, the

law enforcement institutions and others inside and outside the government as a

means to build accountability to concerns public;

 Sensitize the people and raise their level of awareness as necessitated by the

need to implement the Development Vision;

 Adopt strategies to build integrity by promoting accountability and

transparency;

 Ensure that all service delivering institutions provide correct information and

analysis in response to their obligations to society;

 Enshrine and entrench the pillars and core values of the Development Vision

into the Union Constitution to make them sacrosanct and thereby galvanizing

Tanzanians behind their practical realization.
