Description
Azam Media Limited (AML) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Kesho Trust to collaborate on the development of 14 Television Episodes under the Viumbe Hai (Living Things) Television Programme. Covering two major ecosystems in Tanzania, namely Tarangire-Manyara ecosystem and the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem, the collaborators visited and filmed in Randileni and Burunge WMAs, Manyara Ranch, and Makuyuni Wildlife Park in the Tarangire-Manyara Ecosystem and Ikona WMA, Ikorongo and Gurumeti Game Reserves in the Serengeti-Mara Ecosystem. Working closely with the Tanzania Wildlife Management Authority (TAWA) under the Malihai clubs, the role of the Kesho Trust under this collaboration was mainly in offering technical information on areas related but not limited to: wildlife conservation; threats to wildlife conservation; climate change impacts on wildlife conservation; the role of communities towards effective conservation of wildlife resources; the impact of human-wildlife conflicts on community livelihoods; effective measures to alleviate human-wildlife conflicts; and, the role of technologies towards mitigation of human-wildlife conflicts.
