2.0 The economic context: Support for Growth-oriented Women Entrepreneurs in Tanzania, 2005
Tanzania has a population of just over 37 million, a GDP of US$22 billion, and GDP per capita of US$610.6 An estimated 51 per cent of the population lives below the poverty line. Eighty per cent of the country’s poor population live in rural areas, depending on subsistence agriculture and unable to participate in broader markets. Poor roads, exorbitantly expensive utilities and prohibitive policies have compounded this problem, significantly impeding the growth of the economy.7 Agriculture, the mainstay of the economy, is almost 50 per cent of GDP, and small-scale peasant farmers, who make up 70 per cent of the population, carry out over 80 per cent of agricultural activities. About 30 per cent of the population over 15 years of age is illiterate (UDEC, 2002).
1.0 Introduction: Microfinance in Africa - Experience and Lessons from Selected African Countries
Small enterprises and most of the poor population in sub-Saharan Africa have very limited access to deposit and credit facilities and other financial services provided by formal financial institutions. For example, in Ghana and Tanzania, only about 5–6 percent of the population has access to the banking sector. This lack of access to financial services from the formal financial system is quite striking, when one considers that in many African countries the poor represent the largest share of the population and that the informal sector is an important part of the economy.
Proper Regulation Is Crucial to Ensure Welfare Gains

Report from the Field: Incorporating Microfinance into Kenya's Economic Recovery Strategy
With a population of 30 million people and a per capita income of US$260, Kenya is categorized the 20th poorest country in the world.[1] Estimates indicate that about 47% of the rural population and 29% of the urban population live under conditions of absolute poverty, where malnutrition and seasonal famine are not just a consistent fear, but also a frequent reality in their lives. On the other hand, the unemployment rate, currently estimated at between 25% and 35%, threatens to get out of hand as roughly 0.5 million school dropouts continue to join the ranks of the unemployed every year.
Effects of education upon fertility: The Indirect Effects of Investment in Human Capital

For instance, the type of feelings that begins in the pit of your stomach and radiate outward, exuding brilliance, warmth, and joy.

You Have the Right to Age...Grace-fully!
You Have the Right to Age Grace-Fully! When did America become a nation afraid of aging?

She didn't have silicone breasts or a botoxed forehead, and when she gave me a kiss it didn't feel like it came from a swollen sucker fish! As a grandmother myself now, I think the best aspect of aging is perspective. It allows you to approach life with grace. I am much calmer now and seem to have more
