Isn't turning an illegal dump site into a public recreational garden a good idea! This @GEF_SGP project implemented by CODATz in Kigogo Ward Dar/Tanzania is striving to beautify this site right close to the City Centre. #ZeroWasteDay @wastexlab

#WorldWildlifeDay is an opportunity to celebrate the many varied forms of wild fauna & flora, raise awareness of the multitude of benefits the conservation provides to people & remind us of the urgent need to step up the fight against combating poaching & illegal wildlife trade.

[Faustine Ninga @fdninga]

True that!

[UNDP Tanzania @undptz]

Billions of #people in devping nations benefit daily from using wild species for human well-being. The accelerating biodiversity crisis, with a million species of plants & animals facing extinction, threatens these contributions to #people. @UNDPAfrica
