Although Tanzania emphasized the importance of national culture in development visions, harmonization between development and culture is not visible in the present development debates that view culture as hindering development. This perspective is criticized as lacking understanding of people's manoeuvre to create their space, and neglecting the diverse agencies active in the local environment. This article re-examines relationships between development and culture from people's differentiated perspectives based on place, gender, and generations in order to understand the agencies in the context of "development" and "culture." Through group discussions and interviews in Lindi Region, typically considered as a "poor" region in Tanzania, strategies of women and men, young and old, utilizing concepts of development and culture toward outsiders and amongst villagers are identified. Development agents need to recognize the power of people's culture and diversities of agencies within the local environment to promote endogenous development based on ownership of the people.
