Tanzania’s economy largely relies on tourism,
mining, agriculture and manufacturing. Te types of goods Tanzania exports have changed over the past
two decades, from agricultural products to minerals. As of February 2024, agriculture contributes one- third to the gross domestic product (GDP) and employs two-thirds of Tanzania’s population.
Te youthful demographic of Tanzania, comprising approximately 64 per cent of the population under the age of 24, is poised to be a major catalyst for the growth of sports betting in the coming years. Indeed, leading operators have already gained a foothold in the market and the government is reaping significant revenue benefits. As the government aims for 80 per cent internet access by 2025, the industry is expected to continue to grow.
POPULATION Tanzania’s population has increased by 37 per cent over the past decade to almost 63 million according to the latest UN figures, and, projections suggest that it is expected to grow between 2 per cent and 3 per cent a year until 2050. At the current annual population growth Tanzania’s population is doubling approximately every 23 years. Te size of the Tanzanian population is estimated to range from about 120 million to 141 million by 2050. Tanzania has one of the word's fastest growing young people’s populations. According to UNICEF more than 50 per cent are under 18 and over 70 per cent are under 30. Adolescents form over 12 million of the overall population.
POLITICS Tanzania has conducted regular multiparty elections since shifting from a one-party state in the early 1990s, yet the opposition remains relatively weak. Te ruling party, Chama cha Mapinduzi (CCM), has maintained power for over 60 years, winning every election since the country gained independence from Britain in 1961. Following the election of the late John Magufuli as president in 2015, the government intensified its crackdown on critics within the political opposition, the media, and civil society. After Magufuli's death, Samia Suluhu Hassan, who had served as his running mate in both 2015 and 2020, became Tanzania's first female president in 2021. Under her leadership, opposition parties have been permitted to hold rallies and express criticism of the government without fearing severe repercussions. Trough her 4Rs agenda Reconciliation, Resilience, Reform, and Rebuild Hassan has rolled back many of her predecessor's repressive policies. However, there are growing concerns that Tanzania might be
regressing towards the autocratic practices of the past due to recent incidents, such as the abduction and disappearance of dissidents, and the arrests of opposition members.
