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). |
