Development strategies poverty reduction initiatives: analytical discussion with applications to Tanzania
Mtatifikolo, Fidels;|Mabele, Robert /

This paper is about development strategies and poverty reduction initiatives, using Tanzania as a case study. Poverty is defined and operationalised in the global context, with poverty in Africa being characterised as "mass poverty". In Tanizania poverty is rampant and largely rural even though the urban areas are not as such rich. Urban poverty is worse in smaller towns than in the capital, Dar Es Salaam.
