From Hamburg to Berlin – learning from each other 

With participants from The Ministry of Communication and Information Technology (MCIT), Information and Communication Technologies Commission (ICTC) and Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) of Tanzania, we organised a study visit to Germany 1-5.9.2025 as a part of Digital for Tanzania (D4T) Twinning project.

Five days in two different cities, Hamburg and Berlin, were filled with amazing meetings, interesting presentations, new connections and heart-warming discussions on digitalisation strategies, personal data protection, cyber-security and AI. 

During the study trip our delegation visited: 

• Hamburg Senate Chancellery 

• Airbus 

• The Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information 

• Hapag-Lloyd 

• Alexander von Humboldt Institute for Internet and Society GmbH 

• Federal Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information 

• Berlin Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information 

• Forum Digital Technologies and  

• Fraunhofer-Institut für Angewandte und Integrierte Sicherheit (AISEC) 

The study trip was a great opportunity to learn from different public and private organizations and share views on important aspects of digitalisation of Tanzania. 

Digital for Tanzania (D4T) Twinning project will keep on supporting the successful digital transformation of Tanzania through capacity building.
