Analysis of the Status of Financial Resources for Community Education Programmes in Tanzania

Abstract

Abstract
This study analysed the status of financial resources for community
education programmes in Tanzania. Purposive sampling was used
to generate data from a total of 41 participants. Data were analysed
thematically with the help of MAXQDA software. The findings of this
study revealed that insufficient funds were disbursed for community
education programmes. Further, it was disclosed that the nature of
leadership determined the manner and pace in which funds were to be
released. The study indicates that the delay of disbursement of funds
sometimes significantly hampered the implementation of community
education programmes. The study recommends that investment in
both formal and non-formal education should be the central agenda
if developing countries like Tanzania need to attain sustainable
community development.
