The National Strategy for Gender Development is presented in five chapters.

Chapter Three is on the Implementation Framework of the National Strategy for Gender Development while Chapter Four provides details for Monitoring, Evaluation and Research and Chapter Five is the Logical Framework and Matrix.
The aim of the NSGD is to consolidate and speed up implementation of the Women and Gender Development Policy 2000, which strives to redress gender gaps and inequalities between men and women. It also aims to guide implementers to incorporate gender concerns into their policies, plans, strategies and programmes with a view to implementing commitments at international, regional and national levels.
The goal of the National Strategy for Gender Development is to achieve gender equality and equity in Tanzania as stipulated in the national Constitution and the Women and Gender Development Policy.
The objective of NSGD is to guide and involve all stakeholders to bring about gender equality in a more harmonized manner for enhanced development.
