The Human Resources Development Pilot Project will contribute to the Country Assistance Strategy (CAS) objective of increasing investment in human capital by seeking to strengthen Tanzania's education sector through the following components: 1) raising enrollments and quality/learning outcomes of primary education through increased parental participation and financing, school-based planning and management of resources, school-based quality enhancement initiatives, and improved support for schools at the district level, through a Community Education Fund Pilot; 2) expanding educational opportunities and improving quality at the secondary level, particularly for poorer girls, through a Girl's Secondary Education Support Pilot; 3) building capacity through these programs at the district and community levels and through selective training and project implementation at the central level; and 4) improving policy development, planning, and research through improved testing and statistics systems, operations research, policy studies, and strategic sector development plans.
