This document summarizes a research paper on fresh water resources management in Tanzania. It identifies 7 major river basins in Tanzania - Lake Tanganyika, Lake Victoria, Lake Nyasa, Rufiji River, Pangani River, Ruaha River, and Ruvu and Wami Rivers. It examines the management structures and challenges facing integrated water resources management in Tanzania. Some key challenges identified are population growth putting pressure on water resources, internal and external conflicts over water bodies, low budget allocation to water resources, and ideologies that place most responsibility for water conservation on women. The document recommends increasing government budget for water, supporting indigenous water harvesting methods, and improving cooperation between formal and informal institutions in water management.
