The Ujamaa Community Resource Team (UCRT) seeks to improve the lives of pastoralist, agro-pastoralist, and hunter-gatherer communities in northern Tanzania by empowering them to sustainably manage and benefit from the natural resources on which their livelihoods depend. UCRT believes that empowering these communities is a fundamental step towards a just and sustainable society. Projects focus on land rights, good governance, nature-based livelihoods, social empowerment and community natural resource management.

UCRT Actions:

Supporting communities to secure rights to land and natural resources.

Strengthening local natural resource governance institutions that enable collective decision-making and enforcement.

Helping communities find ways to sustainably manage and benefit from their land and resources.

Empowering marginalised groups so that they can play a greater role in their communities. ​
