TANZANIA GEARS UP FOR NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT VISION 2025-2050 WITH PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT



The Minister for State in the President’s Office for Planning and Investment, Prof. Kitila Mkumbo, announced today the initiation of the process for formulating the National Development Vision for 2025-2050, emphasizing the importance of public participation in building a national consensus on the country’s future direction.

Prof. Mkumbo made this statement while inaugurating the second regional forum in Arusha aimed at gathering public opinions for the preparation of the National Development Vision 2025-2050. This initiative follows President Dr. Samia Suluhu Hassan's directive to ensure thorough public engagement in crafting the development vision.

"The goal here is to reach a consensus as a nation on the fundamental issues we want to achieve. In other words, the process of creating this vision is expected to unite us and help us agree on the direction we are heading. Any disagreements should be about the methods and paths we take to reach our destination," Prof. Mkumbo explained.

The Minister further emphasized that this development vision is for the people and not just the government. President Dr. Samia Suluhu Hassan recognized the importance of obtaining citizens' input, advice, and recommendations to develop an inclusive vision that addresses the needs and challenges faced by Tanzanians.

By involving citizens in the planning process, the government aims to ensure that the National Development Vision 2025-2050 reflects the collective aspirations and goals of the nation, thereby fostering unity and a shared commitment to achieving these objectives.
