The Arusha Declaration Monument (Swahili: Mnara wa Azimio la Arusha) is a landmark monument and tourist attraction in Arusha, Tanzania. It was unveiled in 1977 by the nation's ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi party to commemorate ten years of the Arusha Declaration.[1] It lies along Makongoro Road at the centre of the roundabout.
In April 2015, part of the monument was vandalised when one of its copper plaques was stolen.[2][3]
