| dc.description.abstract | This study was all about the impacts of foreign direct investment (FDI) on poverty alleviation through job creation taking community of Temeke Municipality as a case study. This study involved 80 respondents who represented the entire community of Temeke Municipality. This research adopted a longitudinal research design due to the fact that data were collected from one point at a specified time and area. Data were collected through a questionnaire and analysed by Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The result outputs are presented in different forms which are tables, frequencies, bar charts, pie charts, histograms and percentages. From the study findings it was noted that, communities in Temeke Municipality were aware of what are the impacts of FDI on poverty alleviation. With respect to the policies guiding foreign direct investment, the respondents who represented the entire community managed to mention them including investment policy. The conclusions drawn from research findings included that, foreign direct investment was of great importance on curbing poverty as majority were getting their incomes through direct employment in FDI or sold commodities including cooked food staffs to the FDI workers in different areas within the Municipality. From the research objectives and research conclusions, it was recommended that, the government should allow FDI basing on the country policies and not abiding foreign policies. This study adopted a case study design due to its ability to provide in-depth of the case studied. | en_US |
