The Journal of Water Resources, Engineering, Management and Policy (JWEMPO) has been established at a time when the need for continuous information on the status of the water sector is paramount at global level.

As the country is transitioning towards an industrial based economy, the critical importance of the water sector is very imminent. This journal has been established to fill the knowledge and know how gap that has existed for some time, as a result of a dedicated channel through which researchers, academicians, practitioners and the general public can use to publish and retrieve information on the water sector.

Hence, JWEMPO will serve as a platform for the purposes of conveying, disseminating, educating, equipping, marketing and promoting; research findings, field experiences, indigenous knowledge, governmental strategies and policies.

These journal publication guidelines have been formulated with consideration of the role which the journal is designed to play in supporting and monitoring the growth of the water sector in Tanzania and beyond.
