German is ready to hold discussion on areas of cooperation to help Tanzania realize its development goals,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the projects that received funding and support from Germany through its German International Cooperation (GIZ) and KfW Development Bank are based on water, infrastructure, solar, natural resources and agricultural sectors.<\/p>\n<p>The institutions have supported development of infrastructures at the refugee camps in Kigoma, protection of natural resources and its infrastructures, good governance, financial sector, training, and joint health support with the East African Community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe all want to work together to support these sectors. Personally, I am excited working and being in Tanzania,\u201d Dr Bornemann said, adding: \u201cI reported immediately when I got an offer to be in Tanzania.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The embassy\u2019s head of cooperation said the new team is read for fresh talks that seek to explore new areas of cooperation with its Tanzanian counterpart.<\/p>\n<p>However, Dr Bornmann said the team will work closely and diligently to ensure that they uphold the interests of both countries at the highest possible level.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re just here to assist on your own goals. Our team is here to help speed up the development vision of the country,\u201d she said noting that Tanzania will be the main part in planning the direction of the new economic ties.<\/p>\n<p>Johannes Serrfechter, the incoming Head of cooperation in charge of health affairs for the East African Community at the embassy said the sector has been given a highest priority especially the maternal and child health.<\/p>\n<p>Serrfechter who was born in Tanzania explained that for the past five years, the German-supported projects had helped lower the rates of infant and maternal mortality in the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe regions where we have implemented such projects include Lindi, Mtwara, Tanga and Mbeya. We have also helped people access health insurance and more patients have benefited from the health services and medication provided by health facilities we support,\u201d said Serrfechter.<\/p>\n<p>The Officer equally, assured that German will continue its cooperation tie with Tanzania to jointly improve service provision and development in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AfricaPress-Tanzania: GERMANY has pledged to further open relations and deepen ties with Tanzania as it advances negotiations to broaden its commitment towards supporting the country\u2019s development targets.
