MANAGEMENT PLAN9.1. WHOLE-OF-GOVERNMENTCOORDINATION STRUCTUREUnder GHFSI, USAID would take the leadcoordination role, given the Mission’s expertise,successful prior implementation of agricultureprograms, advanced procurement systems, anda strong cadre of dedicated technical staff.USAID is the only USG agency currentlyrepresented on the Agriculture, Private Sectorand Environment Donor Partner Groups and isideally positioned to effectively communicatethe full range of USG efforts under the newinitiative to both the GOT and donors.Communication and coordination isaccomplished through the USG Democracy andEconomics Working Group, the logical platformto scale up USG coordination efforts led byUSAID.A ‘whole-of-government’ approach and ahistory of leveraging funding and coordinatingefforts for greater impact already exist inTanzania. We have a strong initial base fromwhich to build an accelerated program platformof cooperation should we receive increasedfunding. The Mission works closely with theUSAID East Africa and Southern Africa RegionalMissions, particularly on issues related toregional transport and trade.The National Oceanic and AtmosphericAdministration (NOAA) has a pilot programdeveloped in collaboration with USAID that28
utilizes RANET to provide climate informationfor rural farmers that could be scaled upsignificantly. The Famine Early Warning SystemsNetwork (FEWSNET) provides in-countryforecast-based food security projections.We coordinate with MCC on road upgradeslinking agriculturally rich areas to largermarkets, and will create strong linkages withMCC for a potential USAID rural roadsprograms. We also co-fund communitydevelopment programs with MCC, act in anadvisory role on USDA proposals formonetization, and have engaged Peace Corpsvolunteers in our agriculture programs forvulnerable populations.The US Trade Development Agency (USTDA)is financing a concept paper on upgrading of theCentral Railway Line that links the port of Dares Salaam with Great Lakes countries. The USTreasury Office of Technical Assistance (OTA)supports monetary and fiscal policy to enhancethe trade and investment enabling environment.For 10 years we have leveraged the technicalexpertise of the US Department of Interior andUS Forest Service in forestry and conservationmanagement. We also work closely with theState Department on economic development.The scope of the USG inter-agency EconomicsWorking Group was recently expanded toensure effective, whole-of-governmentcoordination of potential GHFSI investments.The renamed Prosperity Group will movebeyond information sharing and coordination torealize the full benefits of integrated assistanceprograms. For example, they will strengthencoordination with USDA’s Cochran Fellowshipand Food for Progress programs andparticipating in joint monitoring field visits.Table 5: Tanzania Mission: Whole-of-Government Labor DivisionGHFSI Core Investment AreasAgricultural Productivity-Irrigation, Rural Roads, FarmInputsMaintain Natural Resource Base and PromoteAdaptation to Climate ChangeStimulate Private SectorIncrease TradeSupport Policy Reforms and Good GovernanceVulnerable Populations/NutritionTraining and ResearchParticipating USG Agency/DepartmentUSAID (EG), MCC, USDAUSAID (EG, NRM), NOAA, USDAUSAID (EG, EGAT, DCA), Treasury Department, StateDepartment (Pol/Econ), MCCUSAID (EG, EGAT,DCA), Department of Treasury, StateDepartment (Pol/Econ), MCC, USTDAUSAID (EG, DG), Department of Treasury, StateDepartment (Pol/Econ, Public Affairs), MCC, USDAUSAID (EG,HIV/AIDS, Health), PEPFAR, CDC, USDA (Foodfor Progress)USAID (EG, Education), State Department (Public Affairs),USDA (Cochrane Fellowships)29
