This project focuses on restoring degraded land by native 12,000 native species of water retaining trees and protecting water sources in Dodoma and Singida regions of Tanzania. The initiative will plant indigenous trees, restore riverbanks, and promote sustainable environmental practices in local communities. Climate change and deforestation have reduced rainfall and increased water shortages in central Tanzania. The project aims to improve ecosystems, increase water availability, and strengthen
Dodoma and Singida face severe environmental degradation caused by deforestation, overgrazing, and unsustainable farming practices.Many rivers, wells, and natural water sources are drying up due to loss of vegetation cover and changing climate conditions. Communities experience frequent droughts, reduced crop production, and lack of clean water for households and livestock. Without urgent action, land degradation and water scarcity will continue to threaten livelihoods and biodiversity.
The project will organize tree planting campaigns using drought-resistant indigenous tree species in degraded areas. Community members and youth groups will receive environmental education and training on sustainable land management practices. Water catchment areas, riverbanks, and springs will be protected through restoration and conservation activities. Partnerships with local leaders and schools will encourage long-term community participation in environmental conservation
Restored forests and vegetation will improve rainfall retention and recharge underground water sources. Communities will gain better access to clean water for agriculture, livestock, and domestic use throughout the year. The project will reduce soil erosion, improve biodiversity, and create healthier ecosystems in central Tanzania. Future generations in Dodoma and Singida will benefit from a greener environment, stronger food security, and improved climate resilience
