and sociological issues (“mainstreaming”) 9 . Consequently, proposals for chemical safety projects must be logically connected to the national strategies for sustainable development of the recipient country, referring to Agenda 21, the WSSD Plan of Action, the Millennium Development Goals, and other relevant international instruments and declarations. The value-added of chemicals management project components to the countries development process should be clearly described. The activities addressing chemical safety can then be mainstreamed more readily with ongoing development assistance programmes and projects. Most chemical-related projects would then be addressed under the development assistance priorities, and would not have to be channelled to donors separately. If a programme or project is already initiated in a related sector, the chemical safety issues should be integrated in this programme/project rather than being developed and implemented separately. For example, one may take examples of the Tanzania Social Action Fund (TASAF) or Malaria Eradication project, in principle such programmes should have a built it components of Sound management of Chemicals. A systematic evaluation of development assistance programmes and projects will help to identify elements with chemicals management components and possible connections to chemical safety issues to be included in a package. Indicators should be developed that both provide information on the effects of chemical safety interventions linked to sustainable development goals, and allow effect monitoring, i.e. tracking and reporting on the progress towards achieving results on the ground and ultimately the sustainable development goals. Progress in capacity building for chemical safety should be assessed using measurable indicators. Documentation of the achievements and progress as measured by indicators, impact monitoring and review of implementation should be a prerequisite for identifying priorities for further activities and launching new programmes. 6.0 CHALLENGES TO REDUCE EXTREME POVERTY It is worth mentioning here that reducing extreme poverty especially for the rural poor is not an easy task. Sometime interventions may aggravate the problem. There case examples where pesticides were supplied and instead of enhancing 9 DISCUSSION PAPER: Capacity Building Assistance for Chemical Safety: A Perspective of Donor Institutions and Development Assistance Agencies.

productivity, it wiped out the crop, case example “MATOKE”. Of course the reasons for such adverse effect may be many, but definitely, lack of knowledge on the proper use of such chemical could have played a role. Therefore, it is only through articulation of the challenges proper interventions may be put in place. The NSGRP provides a detailed analysis of the challenges to be overcome in order to eradicate poverty. The challenges are discussed under the following sub-headings: 6.1 Income Poverty As mentioned earlier, the proportion of the population below the national food poverty line is 18.7 percent and that below the national basic needs poverty line is 35.7 percent. The majority poor people i.e. 87% live in rural areas and is highest among households who depend on agriculture. Tanzania has been experiencing a low average per capita real economic growth of only 0.6 percent annually over a ten-year period. The current impressive economic growth of about 6.0% is due to faster growth in manufacturing, construction, mining and quarrying as well as wholesale, retail and hotels, not in agriculture, which employ the majority of poor. Agriculture is the lead sector in the Tanzanian economy accounting for 45 percent of GDP and about 60 percent of export earnings. Agriculture is the source of food and raw materials for industries. It also provides livelihoods to 82 percent of the population. Major constraints to agriculture sector growth and productivity include low productivity of land, labour and production inputs; underdeveloped irrigation potential; limited capital and access to financial services; inadequate agricultural technical support services; poor rural infrastructure; infestations and outbreaks of crop and animal pests and diseases; erosion of natural resource base and environmental degradation. In order to benefit the poor majority, promotion of agricultural sector is essential, and this may inevitably mean increased use of pesticides and fertilisers, hence the need for sound management of pesticide use. 6.2 Employment Status According to the Integrated Labour Force Survey (2001/02) 10 the total labour force (age 15 years and above) has increased from 11.2 million in 1990/91 to 17.8 million in 2001. This implies that 650,000 new people have been entering the labour market every year. Wage and salary employment has been expanding at much lower rate estimated at some 40,000 persons per annum. That leaves the majority of the new entrants into the labour market entering the labour market through self-employment largely in agriculture and the informal sector. Again, agricultural sector need to be promoted in order to solve unemployment problems and rural-urban migration. 10 URT (2002). Integrated Labour Force Survey 122
