The Tourism Satellite Accounts (TSAs) provide an internationally recognized and standardized method of assessing the scale of tourism-related production and its links across different sectors. Tourism’s economic contribution to Zanzibar’s economy was measured through the construction of the 10 TSA tables. Overall, the derived accounts analyzed all aspects of demand for goods and services associated with tourism within the economy, monitored the operational interface of the supply of such goods and services, and evaluated how supply interacts with other economic activities. The main objective of this project was to establish the direct economic contribution of tourism to Zanzibar’s economy. The specific goals were to estimate tourism demand and tourism supply, assess value added by tourism activities in the economy, establish the level of employment generated by tourism activities, measure the gross fixed capital formation by the sector, and measure the collective consumption of tourism services by the Government.
