SAGCOT CEO meets with the US journalists

Mr. Geoffrey Kirenga (center), CEO of the Southern Agricultural Growth Corridor of Tanzania (SAGCOT) gives a background about SAGCOT before answering questions from the United States journalists.   Also in the photo is Mr. Obey Assery-Nkya, Director from the Department of Coordination of Government Business in the Prime Minister's Office and Ms. Alexandra Frank (left), Project Manager (Tanzania) from the John Hopkins University.  The meeting was also attended by Mr. Frank Mhina (not in the photo), Foreign Service Officer from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Co-operation.

Ms. Frank had coordinated a 15 member-journalists group which is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation through John Hopkins International Reporting Project.  The journalists have been selected from a very competitive application process open to media organizations throughout the world.  The group is in the country from September 29, 2013 to October 9, 2013.  The chief mission of their trip is to learn more about Tanzania's agriculture, food security and nutrition initiatives. 

Mr. Kirenga continues his discussion with the US journalists.  Also in the photo are Mr. Assery-Nkya (right), Director of the Department of Coordination of Government Business in the Prime Minister's Office, Ms. Tulalumba Mloge (far right -3rd), Executive Assistant at SAGCOT Centre Ltd., and Mr. Frank Mhina (far right - 4th), Foreign Service Officer in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Co-operation. 

During his discussion, Mr. Kirenga explained that SAGCOT is an inclusive, multi-stakeholder partnership to rapidly develop the region’s agricultural potential. SAGCOT was initiated at the World Economic Forum (WEF) Africa summit 2010 with the support of founding partners including farmers, agri-business, the Government of Tanzania and companies from across the private sector. 

SAGCOT’s objective is to foster inclusive, commercially successful agribusinesses that will benefit the region’s small-scale farmers, and in so doing, improve food security, reduce rural poverty and ensure environmental sustainability. The risk-sharing model of a public-private partnership (PPP) approach has been demonstrated to be successful in achieving these goals and SAGCOT marks the first PPP of such a scale in Tanzania’s agricultural history.

Mr. Assery-Nkya explains about scaling up nutrition and its coordinated mechanisms such as collaborative advocacy efforts between the civil society-led Partnership for Nutrition in Tanzania and the government are underway to raise awareness on the importance of nutrition and solicit action.  He further explained that the the country has established a High-Level Steering Committee for Nutrition, which is convened by the Prime Minister’s office and involves representatives from nine key ministries, development partners, UN agencies, civil society, faith-based organisations, academia and business. With the support and participation of this Committee as well as cross-sectoral technical expertise, the country finalized its National Nutrition Strategy and is now working to complete a corresponding costed implementation plan.

US journalists listening to the presentation.  Prior to their arrival in Tanzania, the group also had an opportunity to meet with H.E. Liberata Mulamula, Ambassador of the United Republic of Tanzania in the United States of America and Mexico. 

The meeting continues. 

The International Reporting Project (IRP) based at the Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) in Washington DC, has been conducting in-depth fact-finding visits to countries around the world since 2000.  More than 200 senior journalists have reported on these trips to South Africa, India, Turkey, Nigeria, Indonesia, Uganda, China, Liberia, Brazil, Kenya, Rwanda, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Kazakhstan, Peru and Korea.

Mr. Kirenga listens to the presentation by the US journalists, who also plan to tour the the KINU Innovation Space in Dar es Salaam, the iAGRI Project at Sokoine University in Morogoro, the One Acre Fund in Iringa and the Oikos East Africa group in Arusha.

The purpose of the trip is two-fold: it is educational, part of the ongoing programs at the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies, and it is also designed to enable the media representatives to report accurately about food security and agricultural topics.All photos by Tagie Daisy Mwakawago of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Co-operation.

MAALIM SEIF AWATAKA WAISLAM NCHINI KUUNGA NA KUSHIKAMANA

Makamu wa Kwanza wa Rais wa Zanzibar Maalim Seif Sharif Hamad, ametoa wito kwa waislamu kuungana kutokana na mambo ya msingi yaliyomo katika dini hiyo na kuacha kutofautia kwa sababu ya madhehebu.

Amesema kuwa na madhehebu tofauti ni neema katika dini, hivyo hakuna sababu ya kugawanyika kutokana na tofauti ya madhehbu waliyonayo waislamu.

Maalim Seif ametoa nasaha hizo wakati akifunga rasmi Ijtimai ya Kimataifa iliyofanyika Mjini Sumbawanga, Mkoani Rukwa. Amesema ni jambo la kushangaza kuona waislamu wanakubaliana katika mambo ya msingi, lakini wanatofautiana na kulumbana kwa mambo madogo ambayo hayana athari ndani ya misingi na mihimili mikuu ya dini.

Amefahamisha kuwa iwapo waislamu wataungana na kuwa kitu kimoja, wataweza kuwashinda maadui wa Uislamu ambao siku zote wamekuwa wakishabikia migawanyiko ndani ya dini hiyo.

KWa upande mwengine amesema wakati waislamu wakijadili juu ya maadili ya dini yao, pia hawana budi kuhimizana katika kukabiliana na maadui wanaoathiri maendeleo ya nchi ikiwa ni pamoja na janga la UKIMWI pamoja na matumizi ya dawa za kulevya. Amesema majanga hayo kwa kiasi kikubwa yanatokana na kuporomoka kwa maadili, na kwamba wanaoathirika zaidi ni vijana ambao ndio nguvu kazi ya Taifa.

Ameongeza kuwa ni wajibu wa masheikh, walimu, wazazi na jamii kwa ujumla kushiriki kikamilifu katika kuelimishana juu ya majanga hayo, sambamba na kuachana na makatazo ya Mwenyezi Mungu yakiwemo pia vitendo vya zinaa.

Amesema, inaweza kueirejesha jamii katika maadili mema iwapo waislamu watakubali kufuata misingi thabiti na miongozo sahihi iliyomo katika uislamu.

Naye Kadhi Mkuu wa Zanzibar Sheikh Khamis Haji, amewahimiza waislamu waliohudhuria katika Ijtimai hiyo ya siku nne, kuitumia kivitendo elimu waliyoipata juu ya dini yao.

Amewahimiza waislamu hao kuwafikishia wengine elimu hiyo, ili nao waweze kuitekeleza dini ya Mwenyezi Mungu kwa mujibu wa maamrisho yake na mafundisho ya Mtume Muhammad (SAW).

Kwa upande wake, Amiri wa Jumuiya ya Fiysabilillahi Tabligh Markaz Mkoani Rukwa Sheikh Abdallah Abubakar amewashukuru wailamu pamoja na viongozi wa Mkoa huo, kwa mshikamano walioonyesha katika kufanikisha Ijtimai hiyo.

Mapema akisoma Risala ya Jumuiya hiyo Amir Ali amesema Jumuiya imepata mafanikio makubwa tangu kuasisiwa kwake na kupatiwa usajili mwaka 1992, ikiwa ni pamoja na kuwahamasisha waislamu katika kutekeleza maamrisho ya Munyezi Mungu na kuacha kabisa makatazo yake, iki kujijengea mustakbali mwema katika maisha ya akhera.

Viongozi mbali mbali wa dini na Serikali wameshiriki katika ufungaji wa Ijtimai hiyo akiwemo Waziri wa Habari, Utamaduni, Utalii na Michezo Mhe. Said Ali Mbarouk.

TIC yawahakikishia wawekezaji ushirikiano zaidi

Kituo cha Uwekezaji Tanzania (TIC) kimesisitiza kuwa kitaendelea kutoa ushirikiano kwa wawekezaji wa ndani na nje ya nchi wanaotaka kuwekeza katika mikoa ya kanda ya kaskazini na maeneo mengine nchini.

Akizungumza na waandishi wa habari wakati wa kongamano la uwekezaji kanda ya kaskazini lililomalizika hivi karibuni mjini Tanga, Mkurugenzi Mtendaji wa kituo hicho, Bi. Juliet Kairuki alisema kuwa kituo chake kiko tayari kupokea wale wote walio tayari kuwekeza katika kanda hiyo. 

“Kwa wale ambao watakuwa tayari kuwekeza katika mikoa ya kanda ya kaskazini, milango ipo wazi kuandikisha miradi yao TIC,” alisema mjini Tanga hivi karibuni.

Akielezea kongamano hilo ambalo ni la kwanza kufanyika katika kanda hiyo alisema huo ni mwanzo wa juhudi kama hizo katika kutangaza vivutio vya uwekezaji katika kanda hiyo na maeneo mengine ya nchi.

Alitoa shukrani kwa mikoa ya kanda hiyo kwa kushirikiana katika kongamano hilo na kusema kuwa hiyo ni njia nzuri na yenye matokeo makubwa na mazuri kwa uchumi wao na wa nchi kwa ujumla.

Alisema kongamano hilo limetoa fursa nzuri kwa wawekezaji, wafanyabiashara na wajasiriamali kufahamu fursa mbalimbali za uwekezaji zilizo katika mikoa ya kanda ya kaskazini na pia kuelezea ambavyo serikali inasaidia uanzishwaji wa miradi ya uwekezaji.

Alisema katika kipindi cha miaka 12 iliyopita, Tanzania imefanya vizuri katika eneo la uwekezaji ambapo uwekezaji mkubwa umefanywa kwenye sekta za kilimo, utalii, viwanda, mawasiliano, miundombinu na usafirishaji.

Alisema katika kipindi hicho, miradi ya uwekezaji imekuwa kutoka 178 hadi 869 mwaka 2012 huku uwekezaji uliofanywa na watanzania wenyewe ukiwa ni asilimia 53 ya miradi yote.

Alifafanua kuwa kuongezeka kwa miradi kumechangia kukua kwa mitaji kutoka dola za kimarekani 874 milioni hadi USD 12 bilioni. “Miradi hii imevutia ajira mpya zinazofikia 135,760 mwaka 2012,” alisema.

Mkuu wa wilaya ya Hanan’g, mkoa wa Manyara, Bi. Christina Mndeme alisema kongamano hilo limekuwa la manufaa makubwa kwa wilaya yake.

Alisema kutokana na kongamano hilo, tayari amefikia makubaliano na baadhi ya wawekezaji ambao wako tayari katika kujenga kiwanda cha kuongeza thamani mazao mbalimbali pamoja na mwekezaji mwingine, Manyara Cement, anayetaka kujenga kiwanda cha sementi.

“Makongamano kama haya ni muhimu sana, tuko tayari kufanya kazi na wawekezaji na TIC,” alisema.

Awali, akielezea umuhimu wa makongamano hayo ya uwekezaji, Waziri Mkuu Mizengo Pinda alisema ni ya muhimu na kuwa yanatakiwa kuimarishwa zaidi.

Akitoa mfano alisema tayari matokeo mazuri yameshaonekana kutokana na kongamano la uwekezaji lililofanyika mwezi Oktoba mwaka 2012 katika kanda ya Nyanda ya Juu Kusini mkoani katavi.

“Sasa kuna ongezeko kubwa la vyumba vya hoteli vinavyofikia elfu moja kutokana na uwekezaji katika sekta ya utalii katika mkoa wa Katavi,” alisema.

Kongamano la uwekezaji kanda ya kaskazini lilihudhuriwa na wawekezaji zaidi ya 1,500 toka ndani na nje ya nchi pamoja na maafisa wengine toka sekta binafsi na umma, viongozi wa dini, mabalozi na wadau wengine wa maendeleo.
