4 INITIATIVES FOR VILLAGE LAND USE PLANNING GUIDELINES The Model Village Layout Planning Handbook (1975) MLHSD Residential part of the village. The Land Use Planning Handbook (1983)) ODA, Tb Tabora Rural Integrated Development Project for agricultural development. The Village Land Use Planning and Implementation Guidelines for Tanzania (1993) NLUPC MLHSD. Multi sectoral approach but overemphasises on plan making by experts rather than guiding villagers participation in decision making.

5 PARTICIPATORY VLUP GUIDELINES 1 The increasing demand to regulate the use of land resources, and the growing awareness that land use management problems are better addressed through a participatory and integrated approach, initiated Dodoma Land Use Management Project (DLUMP), in (MLHSD, DLDO, SNV Netherlands) N This project aimed at developing a methodology for participatory village land use planning and management which should better address to the needs of the rural population than the conventional top down oriented approaches.

Integrating development efforts and investment of relevant sectors (programmes) involved in rural development (e.g. WMAs, PFM, MACEMP, ASDP/DADPs) for complementariness in integrated participatory land use planning and management.
