"By October 2015, the TMF project will have transitioned from being a donor initiative to a new legal entity. Since 2008, the TMF project has been using grants as a way to increase quality content in as well as to strengthen the Tanzanian media landscape. This new strategic plan, which outlines the new TMF’s vision and work from October 2015 to December 2018, continues with this approach. It draws heavily on the experience gained during the implementation of the TMF project from 2008 until May 2015 and particularly on inputs from the 2014 TMF external review and consultations with various media stakeholders [...] This process of engaging with the context and honing in on TMF’s comparative advantage led to the decision to focus on two basic objectives: increasing quality, quantity and diversity of Investigative Journalism (IJ) and Public Interest Journalism (PIJ) products in the media sector; Increasing the professional capacity of participating media organisations and stakeholders. Going forward, the new TMF will also be concerned with ensuring its sustainability. As part of this process, this Strategic Plan outlines major changes that will continue to take place to strengthen TMF as an organisation." (Executive summary)
