Pilot4Research and Dialogue team members have organised a green economy dialogue in Tanzania, on the 30th of November, 2021, which will be online.

The organisers note that in the aftermath of the COVID 19 pandemic, green recovery appears to be massive potential for development and youth.

The Virtual Dialogue on “Moving Towards Green Economy,” which will explore how Tanzania can  create an economy that meets future needs and conserves resources. It will look at prospects for further growth and transformation in Tanzania in a way that creates a sustainable development and improvements in people’s lives.

Speakers at the event will address the topic of green economy with focus on Agriculture, Environment and Climate change.

According to Pilot 4 Research and Dialogue, a project co-funded by the European Union with the support of the Tanzanian Ministry of Finance and Planning, it is important to look at new ways of approaching energy & water, reasonable use of natural resources- more sustainable infrastructures, as well as eco-friendly corporate and financial practices.

“Entire polluting sectors can be revisited and transformed from the roots to become tools of sustainable development,” notes Pilot4Research and Dialogue.

According to the project,  the fundamental idea is to build back better, tackle the economic recession, and establish prosperity by addressing fundamental environmental stakes such as land, water resources, and marine ecosystems.

The  project’s team has invited key speakers to discuss the  position of Tanzania in terms of green recovery? What are the challenges? What are the innovative initiatives already implemented?

A related policy brief has recently been published by the team’s scientists – “Promoting Green Economy in Tanzania: A Pathway to Sustainable Development”.  It is discussing the challenges and good practices related to green economy in Tanzania, offering clear policy recommendations for the establishment of a green recovery.

It is the 9th policy brief produced by the team based on 3 major studies and alongside 3 panels of experts and 7 consultations events gathering experts and a broader audience to enhance research, knowledge exchange and dialogue.

The final production of the project is a scientific book entitled “Learning from Resilience Strategies in Tanzania: an outlook of international development challenges”. The book is divided in 12 chapters written by 16 different researchers. Relying on conceptual chapters as well as on cases studies, the book is approaching resilience to global challenges and climate change in Tanzania in the framework of the socio-economic realities of the country, and with a particular focus on the role of women.
