CLIMATE CHANGE LEGISLATION IN TANZANIA AN EXCERPT from the 2015 Global Climate Legislation Study (Nachmany, M. / Fankhauser, S. / Davidová, J. et al. LSE)

Tanzania has enacted a number of policies and legislative acts that either directly address climate change issues or indirectly support these objectives through environmental conservation in the related areas of alternative energy, protection of forest lands, and disaster response. The country’s approach to climate change runs parallel to its goals of social and economic development. The government envisages future economic development as dependent on how the country responds to climate change challenges, as well as its institutional capacity to implement climate change sectoral and cross-sectoral activities.
