About Justdiggit
Justdiggit helps farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa to restore degraded landscapes using rainwater harvesting, agroforestry and climate resilient agriculture. While our main programs are in Kenya and Tanzania, we are also active in Togo, Ethiopia and Madagascar. Furthermore, we have awareness campaigns throughout Europe and Africa.
What we do in Tanzania
In Tanzania we are working with and through local partners in Dodoma, Singida and Arusha region. Our primary partner is Dodoma based LEAD Foundation with whom we have a large program in Central Tanzania focusing on Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration. We are already working in close to 400 villages, and have the mutual ambition to expand this to a 1,000 villages by 2030 and make this an exemplary program in the field of ecosystem restoration. We have recently started a project in Northern Tanzania (Monduli district, Arusha region) and are expecting to expand with current and new partners and start more projects in 2022.
In all projects we are aiming to be as innovative as possible with a distinct emphasis on communication to complement more traditional program approaches. This ranges from the use of video tours, SMS-services, billboards and radio programming to the use of digital technology such as smartphone and smart feature phone applications.
As an important element of the latter, we are developing a “Regreen app” which unlocks the knowledge of regreening to all farmers in Tanzania with an internet connected phone. A large part of this development, especially the testing of different iterations of this app, will start to take place in 2022.
How we work
We believe in the power of diverse teams comprising of people with different specialties. We call this Landscape teams (in the case of our regreening programs) or Working groups (in the case of special overarching projects). A Landscape team is headed by a Landscape Manager and typically consists of a person for technical & quality aspects, finance, communications, technology, monitoring & evaluation and business development. These persons work in multiple landscape teams throughout the Justdiggit organization. For Tanzania we currently have one landscape team (Landscape team Tanzania) working both on our central and northern Tanzania projects.
As an African-European organization, our staff is based in multiple countries but our main hubs are the Amsterdam office and the Regional Office East Africa (ROEA) in Nairobi. This means that a landscape team works across continents and a lot of the communication is done remote.
