Insights on Climate Finance in Tanzania’s National Budget Process

In August 2025, ClimateFiGS and Mzumbe University brought together experts and practitioners in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, for a climate finance co-design workshop. Participants discussed topics related to the quality, quantity, and effectiveness of climate finance, as well as the extent to which it aligns with the needs of its intended beneficiaries. The workshop featured five roundtables focused on different aspects of climate finance. This brief summarizes the insights from the session on climate finance in Tanzania’s national budget process, which brought together 17 participants. The aim of this brief is to present key themes and insights from the discussion and to highlight the most pressing research areas identified. We hope it can help guide researchers, policymakers, and other stakeholders toward areas where attention and contributions are most needed.
