About

Tanzania is one of the largest countries in sub-Saharan Africa and is home to more than 52 million people. Only 16% of Tanzanians have access to improved sanitation, and 12% still practice open defecation (WHO/UNICEF 2015).

SHARE worked in Tanzania since its inception in 2010 on a range of projects including: urban sanitation, sanitation microfinance, WASH and maternal health, and WASH and nutrition. We also played a leading role in the evaluation of the first Tanzanian National Sanitation Campaign.
