Residents of informal settlements
Supporting people in unplanned neighbourhoods to secure services, tenure and a meaningful say in city decisions.
Inclusive Urban Transformation
Cities that work for everyone.
Our Conviction
The living conditions in our urban poor communities are unacceptable.
The narrative of poverty has shifted. Mass urban migration is outpacing infrastructure, turning cities into the new epicentres of severe marginalisation — overpopulated, underserved, and struggling to provide the basic jobs, hygiene and safety every person deserves. Through evidence-based programming, strategic partnerships and community empowerment, TPi drives inclusive, systemic change across Tanzania's cities.
We envision a future where every urban resident lives in dignity, safety, and climate resilience with equal opportunities to thrive and contribute to the nation's economy.
Who Matters to Us
Our work centres on people and institutions too often left out of urban planning.
When the most excluded residents have voice and agency, cities improve for everyone.
Women and youth
Creating space, skills and economic opportunities for women and young people to lead urban change.
Persons with disabilities
Ensuring urban planning, services and infrastructure are accessible and responsive to diverse needs.
Low-income urban households
Working with families facing poverty to improve livelihoods, housing conditions and access to basic services.
Local governments and urban authorities
Strengthening the capacity, data and processes that make public institutions more inclusive and accountable.
People are not beneficiaries at the end of a project. They are partners from the beginning. TPi is grounded on participation, equity and learning.
SDG Alignment
Contributing to the Global Goals.
TPi's mandate directly advances SDG 1, SDG 11 and SDG 13, with meaningful contributions to SDGs 3, 4, 5, 6 and 10.
