This article provides an in-depth analysis on the extent to which women are
involved in the decision-making chain in the extractive sector (both informal and
formal) in Tanzania. Its specific focus is on the legal and policy framework that
has been put in place, taking into account both the traditional and non-traditional
extractive sectors. Regarding the traditional sector, attention has been placed on
oil, gas, and minerals. The non-traditional extractive sector, on the other hand,
covers natural resources other than oil, gas, and minerals. Its thesis is guided by
three main assessment criteria to benchmark women’s participation or/and
engagement in the extractive sector in the traditional and non-traditional extractive
industries: law, policy, and claimed space. The article reveals that the legal and
policy framework governing the extractive sector does not guarantee effective
participation of women. The article recommends that the legal and policy
framework be amended to address this anomaly. |
