ABOUT FORS
our mission statement
FORS aims to increase awareness and appreciation of the environment, ensure that benefits from wildlife reach local communities, slow environmental destruction and assist in the search for new balances between people, wildlife and environment.
how we work to fulfill our mission
FORS works to fulfill its mission through a comprehensive Environmental Education Program developed over several years, using Tanzania's curriculum as a starting point. FORS works in Primary Schools in and around Ruaha National Park and helps to train local game scouts working in the new Wildlife Management Area (WMA). The WMA is land along the Southern border of Ruaha National Park that has been set aside by the villages to be managed by Matumizi Bora ya Malihai Idodi na Pawaga (MBOMIPA), ensuring conservation and sustainable use of Natural Resources while benefiting local people.
