This report is part of a series of reports prepared by the World Bank using the Systems Approach for Better Education Results (SABER)-ECD framework and includes analysis of early learning, health, nutrition and social and child protection policies and interventions in Tanzania, along with regional and international comparisons. Tanzania is home to 7.6 million children age 0-6. Child and infant mortality have declined significantly in the last decade. SABER-ECD collects, analyzes and disseminates comprehensive information on ECD policies around the world. In each participating country, multi-sectoral information is collected on ECD policies and programs through a desk review of available government documents, data and literature, and extensive interviews with a range of ECD stakeholders, including government officials, service providers, civil society, development partners and scholars. The SABER-ECD framework presents a holistic and integrated assessment of how the overall policy environment in a country affects young children's development. SABER-ECD identifies three core policy goals that countries should address to ensure optimal ECD outcomes: establishing an enabling environment, implementing widely and monitoring and assuring quality. Improving ECD requires an integrated approach to address all three goals.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABANDONED CHILDRENAGEDALLOCATION OF RESOURCESANTENATAL VISITSBABYBASIC EDUCATIONBASIC EDUCATION STATISTICSBIRTH REGISTRATIONBREAST MILKBREAST MILK SUBSTITUTESBREASTFEEDINGCAREGIVERSCHILD ABUSECHILD DEVELOPMENTCHILD NUTRITIONCHILD PROTECTIONCHILD WELFARECHILDCARECHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMECLASSROOMCLASSROOMSCLINICSCOGNITIVE DEVELOPMENTCOMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTCOMMUNITY HEALTHCURRICULACURRICULUMDEVELOPMENT POLICYDISABILITYDISADVANTAGED CHILDRENDISEASESDISSEMINATIONDOMESTIC VIOLENCEDRUGSEARLY CHILDHOODEARLY CHILDHOOD CAREEARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENTEARLY LEARNINGEARLY STIMULATIONECCEECDECD POLICIESECD PROGRAMSEDUCATION OUTCOMESEDUCATION POLICIESEDUCATION PROGRAMSEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATION SERVICESEDUCATION SYSTEMSEFFECTIVE POLICIESEMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENTENFORCEMENT MECHANISMSENROLLMENT FOR CHILDRENENROLLMENT LEVELSENROLLMENT RATEENROLLMENT RATESENROLLMENT RATES FOR GIRLSEPIDEMICEQUITABLE ACCESSEXAMSFAMILIESFAMILY INCOMEGENDERGIRLSGLOBAL HEALTHGOVERNMENT AGENCIESGOVERNMENT SUPPORTGROSS ENROLLMENTGROSS NATIONAL INCOMEGROWTH MONITORINGHEALTH INTERVENTIONSHEALTH SECTORHEALTH SERVICESHEALTH WORKERSHIVHOME VISITINGHOSPITALSHYGIENEILLNESSESIMMUNIZATIONSIMPACT ON CHILDRENINCLUSIVE EDUCATIONINFANTINFANT FEEDINGINFANT MORTALITYINFANTSINFORMATION CAMPAIGNSINFORMATION SYSTEMINFORMATION SYSTEMSINTEGRATED ASSESSMENTINTERNATIONAL COMPARISONSINTERVENTIONIODINE DEFICIENCYIRONLAWSLEARNING OPPORTUNITIESLEGAL STATUSLEVEL OF DEVELOPMENTLIFE CYCLELIVE BIRTHSLOW BIRTH WEIGHTMALARIAMALNUTRITIONMARKETINGMATERNAL NUTRITIONMATERNITY LEAVEMEDICAL SERVICESMEDICAL TREATMENTMINISTRY OF EDUCATIONMINISTRY OF HEALTHMORTALITYMOTHERNATIONAL LAWNATIONAL LAWSNATIONAL LEVELNATIONAL LEVELSNATIONAL POLICYNET ENROLLMENTNEWBORNNEWBORN CARENEWBORNSNUMBER OF CHILDRENNUMBER OF PUPILSNURSINGNUTRITIONNUTRITION EDUCATIONNUTRITION INTERVENTIONSOBESITYORPHANSPARENTAL LEAVEPARENTINGPARENTING EDUCATIONPARITYPATERNITY LEAVEPATIENTSPLAN OF ACTIONPOLICY DEVELOPMENTPOLICY GOALSPOLICY LEVERPOLICY MAKERSPRACTITIONERSPREGNANCYPREGNANT WOMENPRENATAL NUTRITIONPREPRIMARY EDUCATIONPREPRIMARY SCHOOL ENROLLMENTPREPRIMARY SCHOOLSPRESCHOOL ENROLLMENTPRESCHOOLSPRIMARY EDUCATIONPRIMARY EDUCATION DEVELOPMENTPRIMARY SCHOOLPRIMARY SCHOOL ENROLLMENTPRIMARY SCHOOL SYSTEMSPRIMARY SCHOOLSPROGRESSPROVISION OF SERVICESPUBLIC INFORMATIONPUBLIC PREPRIMARY SCHOOLSPUBLIC PRIMARY SCHOOLSPURCHASING POWERPURCHASING POWER PARITYQUALIFIED TEACHERSQUALITY ASSURANCEQUALITY CONTROLQUALITY OF EDUCATIONQUALITY STANDARDSREFERRAL SYSTEMREFUGEEREFUGEE POPULATIONSREFUGEESREGISTRATION OF CHILDRENRESOURCE CONSTRAINTSRIGHTS OF CHILDRENRURAL AREASRURAL POPULATIONRURAL POPULATIONSSANITATIONSANITATION FACILITIESSCHOOL ENTRYSCHOOL LEVELSCHOOL SUPPLIESSCHOOLINGSECONDARY SCHOOLSECONDARY SCHOOLSSECTORAL POLICIESSEGMENTS OF SOCIETYSERVICE DELIVERYSERVICE PROVIDERSSERVICE PROVISIONSERVICE QUALITYSEXUAL VIOLENCESKILLED ATTENDANTSKILLED ATTENDANTSSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL SECTORSOCIAL SECTORSSOCIAL WELFARESOCIOECONOMIC STATUSSPECIAL NEEDSSTATE SCHOOLSTEACHERTEACHER RATIOTEACHER TRAININGTEACHERSTEACHINGTERTIARY EDUCATIONTRAINING CENTERSTRAINING OPPORTUNITIESTRAINING PROGRAMSUNIVERSAL COVERAGEURBAN AREASURBAN POPULATIONUSER FEESVACCINESVIOLENCEVITAMIN AVITAMIN A DEFICIENCYVITAMIN A SUPPLEMENTATIONVOCATIONAL TRAININGVULNERABLE CHILDRENVULNERABLE FAMILIESWORKERSWORKFORCEYOUNG CHILDRENYOUNG PEOPLEYOUTH10.1596/17641
