Tanzania People & Wildlife (TPW) is a nonprofit
organization dedicated to protecting wildlife, investing in people, and
restoring balance to Tanzania’s vital ecosystems through effective
conservation action, applied science, and collective impact. Together
with communities and additional conservation actors, we focus on
delivering win-win, sustainable solutions for people and nature. TPW
helps rural communities develop their skills and abilities to protect
natural resources in a manner that maximizes their benefits from these
landscapes while also preserving ecological integrity. Emphasizing the
critical importance of community-led initiatives, the organization
provides information, training, and service level support to its rural
constituencies to strengthen local institutions and community-driven
actions for natural resource management and wildlife conservation.
