Nature Conservation

Our mission is rooted in community empowerment for nature conservation. We support local communities in addressing conservation challenges by creating opportunities for sustainable livelihoods e.g. Nature-based Solutions (NbS), environmental education. Youths are also important stakeholders. We recognize that empowered communities are the architects of their own progress and future. 

BirdLife International

As a BirdLife International partner in Tanzania, we are part of the global family of 123 national partners covering all continents, landscapes and seascapes. We are using birds as indicators of ecosystem health and tool for nature conservation. Birds soaring across migration routes called flyways, like super highways in the sky, billions of birds cross deserts, mountains and oceans during migration.
