Abstract	This report illustrates how broadcast and print media have been used to enhance transparency and accountability. The report also highlights the challenges of using the media to enhance governance processes at district and national level. The report shows that engaging media organisations as local capacity builders such as Media Institute of Southern Africa to address these challenges can improve the role of the media in enhancing transparency and accountability in basic service delivery (WaSH and Primary Education) and in enhancing communication for development in Tanzania.
