Year 2000 country profile: the status of Tanzania with the IMF and the World Bank
Globalization Challenge Initiative / 2000

Globalization Challenge Initiative (GCI) publishes the SAP Information Alert Series in order to promote informed debate about IMF and World Bank-financed operations, including the potential political, economic, social and environmental consequences of sectoral and strucural adjustment programs. Adjustment programs attempt to promote export-oriented growth along with liberalization and privatization of economies. These programs are largely formulated in secrecy. Most adjustment-related documents are not publicly disclosed, despite the profound impacts of adjustment policies on the citizens of borrowing countries.
