	CCR vol.9 no.3 - Refugees, Conflict & Conflict Resolution
		In May 1997, the government of Tanzania and UNHCR fielded a joint mission to the Kigoma and Kagera regions for the purpose of assessing the security situation in and around the refugee camps.
		As a responsible state and a haven of peace in a turbulent region, Tanzania is particularly keen to demonstrate to all parties that it does control the Burundian refugee situation in a manner compatible with both its international law obligations and its mediating role in the Burundi peace process.
		It is the result of a deliberate policy by the government of Tanzania to keep the refugees in the border area, a striking departure from the practice in the 1970's when Tanzania encouraged the settlement of over 100 000 Burundian refugees on agricultural land located much further inland.

		(14) Between 1993 and 1994, the northwestern regions of Tanzania were destabilized by the influx of hundreds of thousands of refugees from Rwanda and Burundi, a number of whom were former militants.
		Tanzania did not have to fight a war of independence, which could be an important factor, since there was no arms build-up or militarization of society.
		Tanzania's facilitation of this transfer was a violation of the trade embargo which had been enacted against Burundi by Tanzania and other neighbouring states.

	Integrated Development of Fishing Villages. Kagera Region, Tanzania
		As none, including the regional and district authorities, has so far been able to establish contacts with either the mainland or offshore fishing communities the proposed catalytic and facilitating role for the fisheries programme appears to be essential to improving the social and economic development prospects of these communities.
		The Regional Authorities would co-ordinate the fisheries programme activities with interventions expected from other donors and agencies thereby creating a joint programme that treats fishing and farming issues as related parts of the same equation.
		The scheme closely follows the same programme first established in Kigoma and operated through the CRDB.
