Tanzania, Canada’s Assistance to the District Based Support to Primary Education Project (CIDA): January 2002–January 2007
Project Description
This initiative assisted the Ministry of Education and Culture in Tanzania to integrate gender equality, HIV/AIDS considerations and environmental sustainability into the country’s primary education reform efforts. Agriteam provided long- and short-term Canadian advisors who facilitated capacity development within the ministry and assisted officials to integrate the cross-cutting issues within ministry policy, procedures and budgets as well as into management and teacher training, primary school curriculum and educational resources. The facilitators worked within a sector-wide approach (SWAp) in the education sector, strengthening the capacity of ministry officials to work in a multi-donor and multi-stakeholder environment.
