16.0 Closing comments: Support for Growth-oriented Women Entrepreneurs in Tanzania, 2005
| |
| In recent years, Tanzania has embarked upon the economic recovery process and is
continuing to build upon and address the needs of MSMEs. Key informants from the
MIT-SME Section acknowledged the current and future potential of women
entrepreneurs and, although seriously under-resourced for the tasks ahead, the SME
Section is enthusiastic and committed to working with the international donor
community to support this target group. Coordination of all support efforts is crucial. A
mechanism for achieving this is recommended – either an officer fully dedicated to the
development of women’s enterprise or the establishment of a more formal Office for
Women’s Enterprise Development (OWED). |
