Background
Enabel is the Belgian Development Agency operating in Tanzania, a public-law company with social purposes in accordance with article 7(iii) of the General Agreement between The United Republic of Tanzania and The Kingdom of Belgium on Development Co-operation.

Enabel in Tanzania has launched its new Country Strategy for the Bilateral Cooperation in Tanzania 2023-2027 while also several interventions financed by other donors are operational. To encourage broad ownership of the development results pursued by its projects and to promote their sustainability, Enabel seeks to establish partnerships with the most legitimate actors in the institutional landscape and when necessary, engages in a capacity development process with them. In this spirit, Enabel is entrusting an increasing proportion of the execution of its portfolio activities to third parties through grants.

In the Enabel framework, a grant is a direct financial contribution by means of a donation/non-commercial payment from the budget of a program/project given to one or more specific beneficiaries. However, in most of the cases, the grantees need support to comply with the administrative, contractual, and financial requirements. A close follow-up and capacity building of the grantee is a must to cope with a successful and timely implementation.
