Influencing Decision Makers (MPs) at the Parliament of the United Republic of Tanzania

1 1.0 INTRODUCTION

Tanzania is a nation of approximately 60 million people with most households using biomass as the primary source of cooking energy. Firewood is the most common fuel in rural households and charcoal is the most common fuel in urban and peri-urban households. TaTEDO-SESO through the component for influencing decision-makers aims to support the governments and parliament with policy and strategic advice, such as on sector policies, strategies, regulatory aspects, and quality assurance.

The goal is to contribute to a wider sector transformation from the lower tier of using firewood, charcoal, kerosene, and LPG to the higher tier of cooking efficiently with electricity which is the ultimate clean cooking solution.

This not only increases direct benefits for users but also paves the way for low- carbon development paths in line with Agenda 2030 and the pledge to leave no one behind. TaTEDO-SESO team through a component of Influencing decision-makers conducted several activities at the parliament including, a meeting with the speaker of the parliament, Minister for what Mhagama, demonstrations, and a workshop with the Parliamentary Committees for Energy and Minerals and Budget and Finance and Tanzania Parliamentarians Friends of the Environment (TAPAFE).
