The RCO further provides strategic guidance and coordination support for the design and delivery of the UN Development Assistance Plan (UNDAP II) 2016-2021.

Other information
Living conditions and remarks
Dar es Salaam is Tanzania's most important city for both business and government. The city contains high concentrations of trade and other services and manufacturing compared to other parts of Tanzania, which has about 80 percent of its population in rural areas. Downtown includes many small businesses, many of which are run by traders and proprietors whose families originated from the Middle East and Indian sub-continent—areas of the world with which the settlements of the Tanzanian coast have had long-standing trading relations. Gradually the UN will move to Dodoma, the political capital of the country as the central government is relocating there in the near future.

United Nations Volunteers is an equal opportunity programme that welcomes applications from qualified professionals. We are committed to achieving diversity in terms of gender, care protected characteristics.
