Usambara Biodiversity Conservation

COMMUNITY

​We work in deep collaboration with our partners, prioritising local leadership, trust and long-term care. Restoration must honour the choices and voices of communities, fostering agency, connection and collective healing.

This focus on women’s empowerment is crucial at Usambara Biodiversity Conservation Project, as it ensures that conservation efforts are inclusive and that the benefits are distributed equitably within the community.

“You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference and you have to decide what kind of a difference you want to make.”

RESTORE & REFOREST.
We are value-led. Our approach and impact go far beyond the number of trees in the ground. They intend to rebalance power dynamics, support connections with Nature, empower women and champion the knowledge of those working directly with the natural environment
