Tanzania's "Dira 2050" - the Vision 2050, positions the extractive sector among the country's priority transformative industries, guided by criteria that emphasise the sector's capacity to generate employment, expand export, strengthen inter-sectoral linkages, enhance value addition, and boost government revenues. Anchored within the broader ambition to build a strong, inclusive and competitive economy, Dira 2050 positions high-impact sectors like the extractive sector at the centre of efforts to raise productivity and accelerate economic growth.
