Tanzania - Institutions and Participation

Action 10 - Staff exchange and mentoring for capacity enhancement

In 2021 and 2022, the Global Water Partnership (GWP) Tanzania supported the Ministry of Water in Tanzania to develop an IWRM Action Plan. The Ministry identified the Wami-Ruvu basin as a priority basin for the development of an Action Plan.  Specifically, work packages including strategic actions were formulated in collaboration with the Wami-Ruvu Basin Water Board as part of appropriate IWRM responses to some of the prevailing challenges in water resources management in Wami-Ruvu Basin. The result is an Action Plan consisting of four work packages.

This strategic action is part of the work package on capacity building at basin organisation level. This strategic action will contain different steps, including: establishment of appropriate mechanisms for staff exchange program and equipment between basin water boards; creation of a favourable working environment to attract skilled staff from other organizations; promotion of mentorship for junior staff.
