8.0 Promotion of women’s entrepreneurship: Support for Growth-oriented Women Entrepreneurs in Tanzania, 2005
| |
| According to key informants from the University of Dar es Salaam,
entrepreneurship is only now becoming considered a legitimate and valued activity in
Tanzania. There is a huge need to increase this and to create more awareness of the
important role that owners of micro and small enterprises play in the economy. A much

entrepreneurs so as to make it an acceptable and preferred option for college and
university graduates, the next generation of entrepreneurs. |

Enhanced Google Maps for East Africa
| |
| On tuesday I had the rare opportunity courtesy of Chris Kiagiri, Technical Lead at Google Kenya to have a sneak peek at the upcoming enhanced google mpas for east africa and let me say it was truly awesome. The amount of detail in this new version is quite amazing, a quick look at the nairobi map goes as far down as streets, buildings (building name and icon) and even adds information to indicate if the street is one way or two way. The enhanced maps currently cover major cities and towns in East Africa including Nairobi, Mombasa, Nakuru, and Dar es Salaam. |
