Hey everyone, I'm looking for advice on how to obtain research permissions to conduct social science research in Zanzibar? I know it's a separate process to Tanzania, but am really struggling to find the correct process and costs involved. I've found various email addresses and websites but they were not working.

I have found some some advice on the archival research side of it but this project involves interviews. I've also found some postal addresses but since I'm based in a different country, an email address would be much more preferable. I've also tried the immigration offices to no avail.

Does anyone have any idea how to go about this or know of a working government email? I also need to arrange the travel visas and find a sponsor for the research but unfortunately, those I've reached out to have not replied.

Thank you!
