Committed to empowering communities to actively and sustainably manage their natural resources inc. wildlife and wilderness. Holistic natural resource management. Educational support is also an important component of this. In Tanzania the Dorobo Fund supports our vision for a sustainable future by:
helping indigenous and local communities to secure rights to their land and natural resources
facilitating sustainable resource management by communities directly dependent on land resources
promoting livelihood options that respect culture and environment
engaging villages in the issues of limits – population growth and consumption
funding education for disadvantaged and minority groups – future leaders of the community
supporting women in education and their rights to be a part of the political and economic process
funding various individual programs that relate to all of the above or respond to a specific need
promoting wilderness as an economic option for communities but also for its inherent value
