Tanzania's deputy lands minister told city planners they need to get their act together and make urban areas competitive for business while keeping them climate-proof and livable. Kaspar Mmuya issued the directive at a conference in Mwanza, saying proper planning would boost economic growth, especially in Dar es Salaam. He wants professionals to lock down land markets, secure infrastructure early, and connect residential areas with industrial zones through better roads.

Mmuya went off about people grabbing public spaces and hazardous land for housing, ordering local authorities to survey and protect those areas before more encroachment happens. The Town Planners Registration Board has 635 private planners and 119 firms registered, and they've been running training programs while switching to digital payment systems. Officials mentioned they're working toward Sustainable Development Goals with a 2030 deadline, and Chinese experts showed up to share their urban planning playbook.
