dc.description.abstract | In the early 1990’s Tanzania reintroduced a policy of higher educational cost sharing aimed at slowly shifting some of the costs of public higher education, which in recent years had been exclusively borne by the Government, towards the beneficiaries of higher education, i.e. students and their parents as well as non-governmental parties and other stakeholders. The Government’s principal objectives for reintroducing cost sharing in higher education were to: expand access/participation in higher education; make the beneficiaries of higher education contribute to its costs; recover the costs of food and accommodations; establish a legally protected students’ loan scheme; and make higher education system more responsive to the labour market needs. | en_US |
