JOINT UNDP-UNICEF-UNFPA-ILO PROGRAMME TO SUPPORT TANZANIA’S PRODUCTIVE SOCIAL SAFETY NETS (PSSN)
International Conference on Social Protection – 15 December 2014
• Background and Rationale• Programme Budget• Partners• Strategic Approach• Outcome and Outputs• Governance and Coordination Structure• Organizational Structure
Outline
• Despite high economic growth since 2001, Tanzania has made little progress towards reducing extreme hunger and malnutrition – 28.2% of the population (11,909, 427) still lives below the basic needs poverty line.
• The majority of the population have little or no access to adequate supply of portable water, basic sanitation and health services
• Despite improvements in basic education, there are still significant challenges such as declining quality standards and gender disparities in primary education access
• Fertility is still high in Tanzania and 116 out of 1000 girls start childbearing by age 18 years
Background and rationale
• In response to these challenges, the Government of Tanzania has developed national strategies for growth and poverty alleviation: MKUKUTA & MKUZA
• The social protection goals of these strategies are concerned with the provision of adequate social protection for poor and vulnerable groups
• Towards this end, the Government established the Tanzania Social Action Fund (TASAF) in the early 2000s
• Based on the success of TASAF I and II, it was decided to design and implement TASAF III/PSSN
Background and rationale
• In February 2014, the Government of Tanzania requested the UN Resident Coordinator a.i. to provide support to the scaling up of the PSSN being operationalized through the TASAF III.
• UNDP and UNICEF fielded an in-country mission of 4 consultants to formulate a joint UNDP/UNICEF programme.
• A concept note on the JP – with ILO, UNDP, UNFPA and UNICEF - was submitted to the SDG Fund in June 2014 and a fully fledged project proposal was submitted in September 2014.
