Background

Tanzania has had 4 credible general elections since the reintroduction of multi-party politics in 1992. Citizens and the government are eager to maintain this track record and to further strengthen democratic practice in Tanzania. Looking to the 2015 general election, government has undertaken early and comprehensive preparations for the electoral processes. Since receipt of official requests for UN assistance to the election cycle leading to the 2015 general election from the National Election Commission and Zanzibar Electoral Commission, a UN Needs Assessment Mission recommended the development of a project in support of the National efforts.
 
As well, in 2014 the United Republic of Tanzania will likely conduct the first national referendum on a new constitution. The National partners and other stakeholders in preparing for these critical events have requested the support of UNDP to provide technical and financial support to the preparation and execution of the referendum and general election. 
To these ends, the Democratic Empowerment Project is a four year (2013-2016) UNDP, UN One Fund and other donor-funded project with the overall aim of contributing to Tanzania’s UNDAP’s Outcome 7: i.e. “key institutions of democracy, (.e.
