It recommends that the government find mechanisms for export promotion, such as tailored export guarantee schemes, specifically targeting manufacturers that do not currently export, while continuing to support established exporters; and by ensuring sound infrastructure that allows technology to operate effectively. It is also essential that national education policies integrate ICT training into programs.Text1 digital file (2 p.)enPRIVATE ENTERPRISESINFORMATION TECHNOLOGYPRODUCTIVITYCOMPETITIVENESSTRADE POLICYEXPORT PROMOTIONTANZANIAExpanding exports : the role of ICTs and trade facilitationPolicy Brief
