Tanzania’s Quest for Financial Inclusion and Crime Prevention

In a bid to advance crime prevention, criminal justice, and rule of law, Tanzania has been working tirelessly to achieve the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda. The country has taken several measures to combat transnational organized crimes, including improving international cooperation, criminalizing all forms of organized crimes, and confiscating proceeds of crime from offenders.

National Efforts

At the national level, Tanzania has domesticated key UN conventions through various legislations aimed at giving effect to these international instruments. These include:

  • Economic and Organized Crimes Control Act
  • Drugs Control and Enforcement Act
  • Prevention and Combating of Corruption Act
  • Trafficking in Persons Act
  • Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters Act
  • And others

Institutions Established

The country has also established institutions dedicated to strengthening the fight against transnational organized crimes, such as:

  • Judiciary
  • Drugs control and enforcement authority
  • National anti-human trafficking secretariat
  • Prevention and combating of corruption bureau
  • Human rights commission
  • National prosecutions services

Public Awareness Campaigns

To prevent transnational crimes, Tanzania has implemented public awareness campaigns, strengthened school curriculums on drugs and corruption, involved stakeholders like NGOs, CBOs, and international agencies. The country has also established treatment centers for drug addicts and opened zonal, regional, and district offices.

Anti-Terrorism Measures

In response to UN Security Council Resolution No. 1373 of 2001, Tanzania established a National Counter Terrorism Center (NCTC) in 2015. To prevent terrorist attacks, the country has installed:

  • CCTV cameras
  • Screening machines
  • Intelligence gathering at harbors, stadiums, railways, bridges, and other economic and social infrastructure

  • Tanzania Police Force
  • Financial Intelligence Unit
  • National prosecution services

Laws and Frameworks

The country has amended laws to designate corruption offenses as serious and economic crimes and has incorporated a more robust framework on asset recovery to ensure that nobody benefits from crime. Tanzania is committed to discharging its obligations under UN conventions and protocols in advancing crime prevention, criminal justice, and the rule of law.
