Can HIPC Reduce Poverty in Tanzania?

Anders Danielson

No DP2001-106, WIDER Working Paper Series from World Institute for Development Economic Research (UNU-WIDER)

Abstract: While growth has increased in Tanzania during the past five or six years, it is still too low to have a visible impact on poverty. Indeed, recent evidence suggests that the amounts of both income and non-income poverty are roughly the same as they were a decade ago.
