Government Strategy & Policy in Tanzania
Assessment Commentary

The National ICT Policy published in 2016 and the 5-year implimentation strategy published later the same year, are an encouraging initiative which covers many development strands; sadly it is somewhat light on cyber security content (see Objective 13) and it is not clear which targets have been met in the last 3-4 years.
