II UNITED REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA LEATHER SECTOR DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY

This sector development strategy was developed on the basis of the process, methodology and technical assistance of the International Trade Centre (ITC) within the framework of its Trade Development Strategy programme.

ITC is the joint agency of the World Trade Organization and the United Nations. As part of the ITC mandate of fostering sustainable development through increased trade opportunities, the Trade Development Strategy programme offers a suite of trade-related strategy solutions to maximize the development payoffs from trade. ITC-facilitated trade development strategies and roadmaps are oriented to the trade objectives of a country or region and can be tailored to high-level economic goals, specific development targets or particular sectors, allowing policymakers to choose their preferred level of engagement.

UNITED REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA LEATHER SECTOR DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY III

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This sector development strategy was elaborated as a component of the ITC Supporting Indian Trade and Investment in Africa (SITA) project, a south-south trade and investment initiative that aims to improve the competitiveness of select value chains through the provision of partnerships by institutions and businesses from India. SITA is funded by the United Kingdom Department for International Development (DFID).

The formulation of the sector development strategy was led by the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment (MITI) with the technical assistance of ITC. This document represents the ambitions of the private and public sector stakeholders for the development of the sector. Stakeholders' commitment and comprehensive collaboration have helped build consensus around a common vision that reflects the realities and limitations of the private sector, as well as of policymakers and trade-related institutions.

The document benefited particularly from the inputs and guidance provided by the members of the sector team.
