  • Serengeti Highway: Roadblocks to Resolution
    Serengeti Highway: Roadblocks to Resolution Katie Hartin September 2011 University of Vermont Each year in Kenya and Tanzania, over 1.8 million wildebeest make a 2,000 kilometer trek in search of fertile grasses, moving from the Masai Mara in the north to the Serengeti plains in the south and back again (Judson 2010). One of the last great mammal migrations on Earth, this already dangerous journey may become more perilous for the beasts when a two-lane paved road will bisect their route, “possibly sending a thick stream of overloaded trucks and speeding buses through the traveling herds” (Gettleman 2010). The ‘Serengeti Highway’ will connect the two major ports of Mwanza and Musoma on Lake Victoria to Dar es Salaam on the Indian Ocean, enabling larger companies, as well as small farmers and entrepreneurs, to transport goods more easily (see Appendix). As of now, there is a paved road from Dar es Salaam to Arusha already in existence, so the proposed highway would consist of a 480 kilometer tarmac road to connect Arusha to Musoma, passing through Serengeti National Park in northern Tanzania (East African 2010). Currently, traffic must travel 418 kilometers around the Serengeti in order to pass from Mwanza to Arusha on a paved road. The new road would drastically decrease this time, creating more business opportunities and easier travel. In recent months, the Serengeti Highway has gained a significant amount of press from Western media, with outcries from conservationists and civilians alike. Since negotiations began about 3 years ago, environmentalists have protested the proposed road, in favor of an alternative route that would run south of the Masai Mara and Serengeti.

Tanzania’s Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater are incomparable in terms of vast landscapes and wildlife numbers. The tour commences with the challenging trek to see Uganda’s gorillas and ends with rest and relaxation on Zanzibar’s white beaches.

Uganda’s resulting beauty, natural wonders and biodiversity have impressed generations of travelers. Visitors return for Uganda’s welcoming people and temperate climate. Uganda’s most coveted natural attractions include the endangered Mountain Gorilla, Chimpanzees and over 1,000 species of birds.

  • A Topological Study of Tarangire, Northern Tanzania, 1890-2000
    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS STOCKHOLMIENSIS Stockholm Studies in Human Geography No. 21 Becoming Wilderness A topological study of Tarangire, Northern Tanzania, 1890 - 2000 Camilla Årlin ' !" #!"! $%& ' () $* +!""%,)!$ -)$% #!"! .! *) +Q! 01 0 !R$%3 4 Abstract Based on field and archival research, Becoming Wilderness analyses the fluid constructs of game preservation and their affect within networks and landscapes to the west of Tarangire National Park, Northern Tanzania from the late 19th Century until the present. The initial query of this thesis is how and why Tarangire comes to be separated as different from its surrounding (on the map and within policy) and what this has entailed for what is ‘within’ and ‘outside’. This thesis is written to add to the understanding of how ‘one of Tanzania’s most spectacular wilderness areas’ was created, in order to problematize and deepen the understanding of the factual peo- ple/park conflicts and entanglements existing there today. Through a topo- logical investigation, it shows Tarangire’s transformation from peripheral to central and the simultaneous transformation of peopled landscapes from central to borderlands. Based on interviews, focus groups and archival re- search the thesis firstly investigates the transformation of peopled land- scapes to the west of Tarangire National Park. Secondly it analyses the al- ternations in the tsetse geography that has previously been claimed to be the root cause behind the creation of the park, pointing to the fluid and rela- tional character of tsetse landscapes. Thirdly, this thesis queries the notion of an ‘imposition of wilderness’ and suggests that vast tracts of Tanzania’s protected areas have in fact gradually become wilderness within heteroge- neous networks, rooting themselves in ways that are far more tricky to op- pose than had they suddenly been imposed.

  • National Forestry Resources Monitoring and Assessment
    TRUST FUND AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF TANZANIA AND THE FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS Title: NATIONAL FORESTRY RESOURCES MONITORING AND ASSESSMENT Project Symbol: GCP/GLO/194/MUL (TFAA110408010) Country: Republic of Tanzania Duration: 44 months Government Agency: Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism Starting Date: May 2009 Completion Date: Revised completion date December 2012 Donor Contribution (UTF): US$ 3,017,157 Additional funding (UTF) US$ 2,896,642 November 2010) Government Contribution: US$ 794,200 (Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism) Total in US$: US$ 5,913,799 Executive Summary In Tanzania, the state and trends of the forestry resources are largely unknown. The existing information is fragmentary and outdated. It is mainly constrained by the lack of institutional capacity. Under the National Forest Programme of Tanzania, the national forestry resources monitoring and assessment (NAFORMA) was identified as a priority activity for the Forest and Beekeeping Division (FBD) of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism (MNRT). The results of NAFORMA are needed to support the national policy processes. Yet, the demand of the stakeholders in Tanzania for data and information on the state of the forestry resources is continuously expanding. This project is planned to develop complete and sound baseline information on the forest and tree resources, assist the FBD to set up a specialised structure and put in place a long term monitoring system of the forestry ecosystems. It will also introduce policy relevant and holistic and integrated approach to forestry resources assessment that addresses all domestic needs of information as well as the international reporting requirements, thereby being able to provide data and information on the sub-sector to users (both local and international) on timely and regular basis.
