Preface
Bunda District Council is pleased to present its Strategic Plan for 2017/2018 – 2021/2022.
This plan sets our course for the next five years towards quality service delivery to the
citizens of Bunda District Council. The Strategic Plan for the Bunda District Council for
2017/2018-2021/2022 provides the strategic direction for the Council and the community.
It identifies key issues affecting the Council and provides strategies to reinforce the vision
and values of the Council and community. Council overarching vision is ‘to have a Community
with Strong Economic base, excellent services and living in peace and harmony’’. This vision is supported
by our core values of “leadership, community participation, equity, transparency, quality,
responsiveness, sustainable development, simplicity, accountability, change oriented,
creativity and value for money

The Strategic Plan was reviewed using the outcomes of council workshops involving 114
stakeholders and service delivery survey conducted by the consultants in the Council, hence
this provided framework of what to be attained by Bunda District Council by year
2021/2022 and beyond. The stakeholder’s workshop was convened under the assumption
that, every person is important and has a right to be heard and their opinion valued, however our community
expects that, the individual rights of a person are counter balanced by their responsibilities as citizens of our
area. The process for this Strategic Plan has considered such questions as “where are we
now?” and “where would we like to be in 5 years’ time?” for the various areas of operation.
We thought about our strengths and weaknesses and our current or potential opportunities
and threats.
Bunda District Council is widely recognised as a dynamic and progressive Council willing to
support innovative ideas and providing opportunities for our community to grow and
improve. This Plan builds on our past achievements and clearly articulates our direction for
the next five years. Our Council looks forward to working in partnership with the
community, government and other organisations to implement the strategies in this Plan to
achieve our vision for the future.

1.8 CROSS CUTTING ISSUES

1.8.1 Gender issues


The District has made considerable efforts to minimize gender imbalances and
inequalities that would prevent the society from realizing its full economic, social and
political development potential. Significant efforts have been made to promote women’s
participation in political and leadership positions.

The proportion of women in leadership representative (decision-making) position has


reached 23 percent. Women’s representation in public service (heads departments) is

16
15%. Gender equity in both private and public schools shows a positive trend and there
is a decrease in domestic violence.
1.8.2 HIV/AIDS

HIV/AIDS prevalence has been reduced from 5.6% in 2013 to 4% in 2016.


Through District Multi-Sectoral HIV/AIDS controlling Plan , Comprehensive Council
Health Plan and using council own source, the District Council has been taking various
measures to address this problem.

Among the efforts, which have been taken are community sensitizations on HIV/AIDS
prevention, formation and training of HIV/AIDS committees at the Council, Ward and
village levels, Formation of Peer Educators at the Council level, training of TBAs and
HIV/ AIDS Counselors, distribution of education materials to

1.8.3 Environment
Sustainable development means achieving a quality of life that can be maintained for
many generations because it is socially desirable, economically viable and environmentally
sustainable. Development is sustainable if it takes place within nature's tolerance limits,
both in the short and in the longer-term perspective.

The challenge for Bunda district council is to recognise the various demands made upon
their environment, and reconcile these in ways which seek to maintain and enhance it for
the future.
Human activities that impact the environment in BDC are poor agricultural practices ,
tree cutting, overgrazing, illegal fishing, poaching, soil excavation to obtain gravels for
road rehabilitation and other construction activities.
These impacts include air pollution, water pollution, soil degradation, loss of biodiversity
and erosion. Environmental impact assessment is vital tool that enables undesirable
effects on the environment might arise from the implementation of the project to be
identified and avoided.

1.8.4 Good governance


The issue of good governance is a precondition for any planned development taking
place in the Council and villages levels. Such issues are transparency, accountability, rule
of law, integrity, responsiveness, participation, equitable and inclusiveness. In Bunda DC,

17
the issue of good governance is exercised in ensuring that all statutory meetings at higher
and lower levels are conducted, reading income and expenditure reports, availing
suggestion boxes and notice boards at all levels, displaying council plans and Budget on
notice boards and the Council website.

2.2 PESTLE Analysis
External environmental factors which impact on the operations of the council and
related strategic objectives may be summarized as comprising the factors as below: -
2.2.1 Political Factors
It is recognized that political stability, democratization and empowerment of
stakeholders, peace and tranquility, legislative and institutional frameworks, are critical
success or failure factors for any organization. In addition, international and regional
relationships, global and national security, public demand for transparency and
accountability has great and underlying influence on policy and operational direction of
the organization.
2.2.2 Socio-Cultural Factors
The demographic changes and urbanization, changing consumption trends and patterns,
increasing and high poverty levels, changes in land use patterns, empowerment of
communities are all vital factors to be taken in preparation of this strategic plan. Equally
important are factors to do with wide income disparities, ethnic challenges, and
differences in social values, corruption and emerging and re-emerging disease incidents.
2.2.3 Economic Factors
Unpredictable exchange rates, escalating energy and food costs, high inflation rates;
uncertain monetary and fiscal policies, international tourist and economic trends
influence to a great deal operations of the organization. In addition, creation of an
enabling environment for investment, inequitable distribution of wealth, unemployment
and underemployment are all real factors to be considered and noted.
2.2.4 Technological Factors
Development in ICT, emerging technologies, e-commerce and the internet are factors,
which influence positively or otherwise the realization of the plan. The Council will
realize its objectives by using modern ICT and other modern technologies. For instance,
computerized database for payment, revenue collection and record keeping will help the
council to be fast in decision making.
2.2.5 Legislative
Legislative issues that will need to be addressed shall focus on factors such as sectorial
Acts, and other related laws, which affects in one way or another the implementation of
council activities. The council will always consider these factors before enacting any by-
laws within the council.

21
2.2.6 Environmental
The major external factors are those that deal with the environment and its impact on
poverty reduction and development of our communities. It should be understood that
some of these include - global climatic and ecological changes and weak enforcement of
national environmental policy.
2.2.7 Analysis of External Environment
2.2.7.1 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Following phasing out of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in 2015, the UN
member states had adopted global Sustainable Development Goals from 25 th September,
2015. The Sustainable Development Goals are the new sustainable development agenda
where each goal has specific targets to be achieved over the next 15 years. Each member
state has committed to achieve 17 goals by 2030. Therefore Bunda District Council
strategic plan shall serve as one of the national vehicles to realizing the goals as it also
deserves the global and national support in that endeavor.

With respect to Sustainable Development Goals those milestones in all sectors of the
economy which the District Council is operating under the Bunda District Council has
the role to play in realization of these goals in unleashing Tanzania’s to middle income
country.

2.2.7.2 The Tanzania National Development Vision (2025)


Tanzania envisions that by 2025 will have attained a remarkable development from a
least developed to middle income country in the areas of quality livelihood, peace,
stability and unity, good governance, as well as educated and learning society; and
competitive economy capable of producing sustainable growth and shared benefits.
High Quality Livelihood
Ideally a nation’s development should be people-centered, based on sustainable and
shared growth and be free from abject poverty.
Peace, Stability and Unity
A nation should enjoy peace, political stability, national unity and social cohesion in an
environment of democracy and political and social tolerance. Although Tanzania has
enjoyed national unity, peace and stability for a long time, these attributes must continue
to be cultivated, nurtured and sustained as important pillars for realization of the vision.
Good Governance

22
Tanzania cherishes good governance and the rule of law in the process of creating wealth
and sharing benefits in society and seeks to ensure that its people are empowered with
the capacity to make their leaders and public servants accountable. By 2025, good
governance should have permeated the national socio-economic structure thereby
ensuring a culture of accountability, rewarding good performance and effectively curbing
corruption and other vices in society.
A Well educated and learning society
Tanzania envisages being a nation whose people are ingrained with a development
mindset and competitive spirit. These attributes are driven by education and knowledge
and are critical in enabling the nation to effectively utilize knowledge in mobilizing
domestic resources for assuring the provision of people’s basic needs and for attaining
competitiveness in the regional and global economy.
This necessitated the government to launch a Tanzania Five Years Development Plan
2016/17 – 2021/22

2.2.7.3 Tanzania Five Years Development Plan 2016/17 – 2020/21


This is an important milestone for Tanzania that the second five year development plan
is being unveiled. Spanning from 2016/17 to 2020/21, the plan is the formal
implementation tool of the country’s development agenda, articulated in the Tanzania
Development Vision 2025.
The Second Five Year Development Plan (FYDP II), 2016/2017 – 2020/2021, has
integrated frameworks of the First Five Year Development Plan (FYDP I, 2011/2012 –
2015/2016) and the National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty
(NSGRP/MKUKUTA II, 2010/2011-2014/2015) further extended to 2015/2016. This
integration implemented a Government decision taken in 2015 to merge the two
frameworks. The objectives of integrating the two frameworks were to improve
efficiency and effectiveness in implementation through organizing and rationalizing
national resources under one framework, by addressing critical challenges, which beset
implementation of the parallel frameworks. The challenges included existence of many
similar priorities of varying scope and emphasis, leading to available resources being
spread too thinly; weak coordination; evaluation and reporting.
The theme of FYDP II “Nurturing Industrialization for Economic Transformation and
Human Development” incorporates the main focus of the two frameworks, namely
growth and transformation (FYDP I) and poverty reduction (MKUKUTA II). FYDP II

23
outlines new interventions to enable Tanzania industrialized in a way that will transform
its economy and its society. It also incorporates unfinished interventions from the
predecessor Plan and Strategy, respectively, deemed critical for realization of the
aspirations of FYDP II. More importantly, and in tandem with the two predecessor
framework, FYDP II also implements aspects of Tanzania’s Development Vision (TDV)
2025 which aspires to have Tanzania transformed into middle income and semi
industrialized nation by 2025, characterized by the year 2025: i) high quality and
sustainable livelihoods; ii) peace, stability and unity; iii) good governance and the rule of
law; iv) an educated and learning society; and v) a strong and competitive economy. With
respect to FYDP II the Bunda District Council has the role to play in realization of these
goals in unleashing Tanzania’s latent potentials existing in the district.

CHAPTER FIVE

MONITORING AND EVALUATION

5.1 INTRODUCTION

Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) of the Councils Strategic Plan is designed to ensure
effective and efficient implementation of the plan as well as sustainability of the intended
impacts. The M&E system is instituted as a review mechanism to monitor the
implementation progress and assess outcomes compared to the vision and objectives.
While, monitoring refers to the tracking of the progress of implementation of the Strategic
Plan evaluation, on the other hand, is a critical and objective appraisal of the overall Strategic
Planning Process at the Council in the form of specific milestones of achievement. This
chapter describes the adopted Monitoring and Evaluation System for the Bunda District
Council strategic planning process and activities.

5.2 MONITORING
Monitoring of the Council Strategic Plan will be the overall responsibility of the Council’s
Management team. The District Executive Director shall appoint a responsible officer who
will be behind the implementation of the plans on the day-to-day basis.
The officer responsible for the plan implementation shall:
i. Prepare and issue monitoring and reporting guidelines to all staff who will be
involved in the implementation and the audit exercise. Specifically, a data
collection instrument will need to be prepared.
ii. Disseminate (to lower and higher levels) relevant information received and
collected from stakeholders. This information will mainly be on the external
impacts and context/external environment. Organize management meetings for
presentation of quarterly implementation reports.

81
a) Methodology
Monitoring will be instituted immediately after starting the implementation of the Strategic
Plan. Three major methods will be used by the Secretariat:
(i) Preparation of detailed budgets and annual work plans showing quarterly
targets and reporting the extent to which the accomplishment of the work
plan are being met using the format given; refer Appendix i & ii
(ii) Physical observations and interviews/discussions between the Secretariat and
the various stakeholders.
(iii) Regular inspection of the development projects by the Council Management
on implementation and management.
(b) Reporting
Monitoring reports will comprise of:
(i) A narrative Strategic Plan implementation report plus a summary table prepared
once every six months using the format given; refer appendix i & ii
(ii) Contents of the narrative report will include but not be limited to:
The approved Strategic Objectives and their target indicators,
o Approved strategies, activities and outputs related to the strategic objectives,
o Achievements in terms of outputs, the deviations in the planned activities and
outputs. Achievements should reflect both the qualitative and quantitative
achievements,
o Constraints in the implementation of the strategic plan and any internal and
external factors which affected implementation,
o Proposed remedial actions and the way forward for solving the problems faced
indicating clearly the planned activities to be carried out in the next period (six
months, and one year depending on the nature of the report).

There will be two six monthly reports per annum; one covering the period from July to
December and the other for January to June. However, when reporting on
implementation of the January to June report, the reporting unit will also reports the
whole year’s achievements as well as what activities have been planned for the next
financial year.

82
The reports from the Secretariat shall include but not be limited to the following: -

❑ Quarterly, Six monthly and annual reports on the implementation and achievements of
the Council Strategic Plan,
❑ Physical observations and interviews included as part of the annual reports, and
❑ Summary of the major recommendations for improving the rolling of the Strategic Plan,
preparing annual operating plan for the subsequent year and the implementation and
monitoring process in the subsequent year.

5.3 EVALUATION

5.3.1 Types and Aspects of Evaluation


There will be two types of evaluations of the Strategic Plan implementation at COUNCIL.
Every year using internal evaluators and another once in the mid-term use an external
evaluation team working with an internal evaluator. Prior to coming of the external evaluators
the internal evaluators will have to give their opinion on the progress of implementation of
the strategic plan, the basis for which the external evaluators would wish to validate. Towards
the end of the five years’ period, a final evaluation shall be undertaken using an external
evaluator.

6.3.2 Terms of Reference (ToR) for external evaluators

The Council shall prepare clear and comprehensive terms of reference to guide the
evaluation. The ToRs for the evaluations shall cover but not be limited to:

❑ Subject of the evaluation


❑ Methodology to be adopted: data collection procedures, sampling procedures,
indicators to be used, basis for comparisons, etc.
❑ Analysis of the field findings
❑ Evaluation of the achievements
❑ Feeding back of evaluation findings

83
Both the internal and external evaluators will have the mandate to decide on other additional
issues to be included or evaluated and agree with DED in advance. This will be agreed at the
first de-briefing meeting between the Council management and the evaluators.

Selecting the appropriate evaluators will consider relevant technical skills, evaluation skills
and experience in similar organizations/assignments. Both the internal evaluation team and
External Evaluation team shall be approved by the DED.

The evaluation reports will be discussed quarterly by Council Management team meetings.
The recommendations adopted will be implemented and included in the rolled over Strategic
Plan.
