Overview
The Research Project Clearance Portal is a specialized digital platform developed by the Tanzania Forestry Research Institute to manage scientific research permissions in the forestry sector. This comprehensive system facilitates applications for research permits, reviews research proposals, tracks ongoing studies, and archives completed research. The portal maintains a database of forestry investigations, researcher credentials, study sites, and research findings. It enhances forestry knowledge development by streamlining research authorizations, ensuring ethical and methodological standards, facilitating knowledge sharing, and supporting evidence-based forestry management and conservation practices throughout Tanzania’s diverse forest ecosystems.
