FOREWORD Embracing resilience not as an add-on,but as a core pillar of its growth strategy,over the past decade, Tanzania has beendemonstrating how resilience can be Niels Holm-NielsenGFDRR Practice Manager GFDRR is helping Tanzania shift from fragmented interventions toa cohesive resilience agenda. Through upstream diagnostics, spa-tial planning, and risk-informed design, GFDRR has supported in-itiatives that restore ecosystems, reduce risk, and enhance urban GFDRR’s engagement in Tanzania has also highlighted the impor-tance of working across scales. Smaller operations in secondarycities—often overlooked in national planning—have served as entry policies, investments, and systems. It highlights theimportance of knowledge, planning, and risk-in-formed regulation; expands the focus on slow-onsetclimate hazards like droughts and sea-level rise whilecontinuing to address rapid-onset risks; and reaffirms Scans and the Resilience Academy, initially piloted inselect locations, are now being adapted for use in otherurban centers. They have helped local governments The collaborative approach in Tanzania is exactlywhat GFDRR’s 2026-2030 Strategy seeks to deepen. Inresponse to growing global demand, the strategy af- deliver multiple benefits—reducing risk while en-hancing biodiversity, public health, and social cohe-sion.

Itrequires collaboration across sectors, institutions, We have seen in Tanzania how a decade of engage-ment—grounded in country ownership and supportedby targeted technical assistance—has delivered tangi- Development partners have played a vital role in thisjourney.

Key development partnershave included the Tanzania Urban Resilience Program(TURP), which was funded by the United Kingdom’s Tanzania’s development trajectory is shapedby rapid urbanization, economic ambition,andincreasing exposure to climate anddisasterrisks.With nearly half of itspopulation expected to live in urban areas by2040 and four cities projected to generate 60 GFDRR’s engagement in Tanzania is framed as a mul-ti-phase, multi-sectoral journey—one that has evolvedfrom early diagnostics and technical assistance tosupporting large-scale investments and institutionalreforms. This long-term partnership has been ground-ed in strong government ownership and strategicalignment with local priorities. GFDRR technical andfinancial assistance, including $2.7 million in grants,has been instrumental in mobilizing $1.7 billion of The country’s risk landscape is complex and evolving.Floods alone have increased tenfold since the 1970s,and in Dar es Salaam, seasonal flooding affects anestimated70,000 people annually,with average Against this backdrop, Tanzania has emerged as a com-pelling example of how resilience can be embeddedacross sectors and scales—from local interventions in Tanzania are expected to benefit from improvementsto basic infrastructure and services under theTanzaniaCities Transforming Infrastructure & Competitiveness mapping, has helped build local capacity by connect-ing universities with real-time risk data and practicaltraining. City Scans, a tool for assessing resiliencechallenges, have enabled local governments to iden-tify and prioritize risk-informed investments.

Upstream support—such as flood modeling,spatial planning, and stakeholder engagement—haslaid the groundwork for impactful operations. Small-er-scale interventions in secondary cities have served These tools areeffective and replicable. Countriesacross Africa and beyond, facing similar challenges,can adopt and adapt these approaches without theneed for entirely new systems or resources. The Tan-zania model demonstrates how modest, well-placed The immersive nature of GFDRR’s engagement in Tan-zania—spanning over a decade—demonstrates thepower of sustained collaboration. It shows that whencountries lead and development partners align behinda shared vision, resilience can be scaled in a way that is In Dar es Salaam, the Msimbazi Basin DevelopmentProject is demonstrating how nature-based solutionscan reduce flood risk while restoring biodiversity andcreating public green space. The TACTIC project is sup-porting local authorities in developing and adopting As GFDRR lo
