Six Tanzanian universities involved in this initiative are not working independently. Instead, they collaborate through a formal network called the Higher-Learning Institution Network (Hi-LINE). This network serves as a platform that brings these universities together, enabling them to coordinate their activities, share evidence, and jointly participate in policy dialogue with government, the private sector, media and other non-state actors.

The Lake Zone represents the north-western region of Tanzania where the Multi-Actor Integration (MAI) network expanded its operations. This geographical area encompasses six administrative regions: Geita, Kagera, Mara, Mwanza, Shinyanga, and Simiyu, located approximately between 1°-4°45'S latitude and 30°25'-35°15'E longitude. The zone is characterized by its proximity to Lake Victoria and represents the research study's broader geographical scope beyond the initial Southern Highlands focus area.
