Among the many challenges facing Tanzania, forest loss and land degradation stand out. 3% of the total GDP is lost annually due to deforestation, and the most affected people are rural small holder farmers and communities whose activities depend on stable weather conditions, healthy soils and tree cover.
Pwani region is ranked with the highest deforestation between the years 2010 and 2019. The country has witnessed long seasons of dryness, floods in some places and the possibility of desertification in some areas like Dodoma Singida and Shinyanga.
