 Who is TanEA?

In June  2006 a conference which brought together about 35 M and E experts from the public, private, civil society sector and development practitioners working in Tanzania was conducted. It was during this conference, a Steering Committee of the Tanzania Evaluation Association was nominated to spearhead the establishment of the Association in Tanzania.  Committee members were drawn from the following organisations: Research and Poverty Alleviation (REPOA), Foundation for Civil Society (FCS), UNICEF, KIM Consult, AMICA Tanzania, TRACE (OD Facilitation and Training Centre), Kimara Peer Educators and President’s Office (PSM). Since then a number of processes have been going on. Currently, the registration of TanEA is underway with the Ministry of Community Development, Gender and Children.

 TanEA has evolved from the momentous world Agenda on Sustainable Development and governance by evaluation. This is a new policy dimension where integration (trade-off) and multi level  governance are the major guiding principles. At this interface, evaluation becomes an important tool for legitimization, moderation, learning and accountability to achieve sustainable development.
