Overview

Tanzania Private Sector Foundation (TPSF) is an apex and focal private sector organization, which seeks to promote effective engagement with government and other stakeholders in developing policy and conducive environment for doing business and developing the country economically. TPSF therefore commands significant influence and credibility both locally and internationally. It boasts a unique position as the government’s partner, which makes her a key player in policy formulation, public private partnership (PPP implementation), coordination of high-level public-private dialogue platforms and National Budget.

The TPSF has been mandated by the Government to establish Sector Skills Councils (SSCs) for the six selected sectors namely Agribusiness and Agro-Processing, Transport and Logistics, Tourism and Hospitality, Energy, Construction, and ICT. SSCs are expected to be platforms to promote public-private cooperation by way of collaboration with regard to skills development for the said sectors.
