Tanzania is one of the 25 development partner countries in which the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) concentrates the major part of its bilateral (country to country) assistance. Canada is increasingly engaged in innovative ways to make aid more effective in Tanzania.In line with its policy statement, CIDA has been phasing out traditional projects managed by Canadian executing agencies and moving to fewer, larger, and more strategic programs that are country-led and supported by several donors.
In addition, CIDA and other donors fully support the priorities set out in the Government of Tanzania’s second poverty reduction strategy and is working with them to establish a Joint Assistance Strategy, which aims to streamline donor support. Tanzania is a model for international efforts to harmonize donor assistance.

CIDA currently provides support to Tanzania’s poverty reduction efforts in the following four areas:
education;
