    Apprenticeship and entrepreneurial development in the Tanzania informal sector
    (Mzumbe University and Agder University College, 1994) Nsana Bernard; Knudsen Harald; Kristiansen Stein
    Entrepreneurship and the operation of small scale, "micro" firms in the informal sector play an important role in many developing economies. They provide employment and contribute to the creation of economic value in the nations. The acquisition of skills in the informal sector depends mainly on informal apprenticeship programs and experiential learning in the workplace. The study includes description of entrepreneurial roles and apprenticeship programs in different trades in the informal sector in Tanzania. It also explores the nature of innovation, economic performance, marketing and management in the sector.

    Market liberalization and the agro-industrial potential in Tanzania
    (Research, Information and Publication Centre, 1997) Kuzilwa, Joseph A.
    This book examines the development potentials in the agro-industrial sub-sector in Tanzania, in the light of its past performance and the current economic changes taking place in the country, especially trade liberalization and restructuring and divestiture of parastatal enterprises. A lot of studies have been done on the manufacturing sector as a whole, but none has examined the agro-industrial sub-sector by itself. This book is, therefore, an attempt to analyze some of the available information about this sub-sector, including its resource base, in order to generate conclusion about its development potentials. The topic is considered important because of the obvious linkages between the country's resource base (agriculture) and the-agro-industrial sub-sector.
