Thousands of people living in Tanzania’s Nou Forest are reliant on the forests around them to survive. But deforestation has become increasingly common as people chop down trees for timber, to sell as firewood, and to clear grazing land for their animals.
This project in the Nou Forest linked forest communities and district governments to form partnerships for more sustainable forest management.

We helped people identify ways to earn money from the forest while protecting its resources for future generations. For example, we:
- worked with farmers’ groups to develop sustainable enterprises in mushroom farming, raffia weaving, beekeeping and tree nurseries, so farmers can earn a living without felling more trees
- helped farmers form associations so they can sell their produce collectively and gain better prices for it
- helped communities map the forest and its resources so they are better able to protect and conserve their habitat
- used our experience from this project to design a model that can be applied beyond the Nou Forest, particularly through our membership of the Tanzania Natural Resources Forum, which shares knowledge across the country.

We worked directly with 23,000 forest dwellers across Babati and Mbulu districts in Manyara region.
