One Nature Β· Tanzania
Bridging the gap between wildlife conservation and community wellbeing across Tanzania's most critical ecosystems.
Our Context
Tanzania is among the most biodiverse nations in Africa, home to world-class ecosystems such as Serengeti, Selous/Nyerere, Ngorongoro, Tarangire, and the Eastern Arc Mountains. Millions of Tanzanians depend on these resources for their livelihoods.
Yet population growth, land-use change, and climate variability increasingly threaten this natural heritage. One Nature responds with a community-centered, youth- and women-led conservation model built for lasting impact.
"We place communitiesβespecially women and youthβat the very center of conservation."β One Nature Mission
