“Ecological integrity of the Ruvuma Landscape is sustained; whereby civil society and local communities are exercising their rights for sustainable natural resources governance
Poverty is widespread in Tanzania. Around half of the population of over 63 million live on less than the equivalent of US$2.15 per day. Rapid population growth is contributing to an increase in the number of people living in poverty. Decisions and natural resources management suffers along the way and this is why this project is designed to strengthen natural resources governance for local Community Based Organizations (CSOs), Community Based Organizations (CBOs), right holders and duty bearers.
