About the video: ‘Case Study: The TACARE Project’
Primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall talks about TACARE – a pilot project she set up in Tanzania to address poverty and support sustainable livelihoods in the villages around Lake Tanganyika. The project works to arrest the rapid degradation of natural resources, especially in the remaining indigenous forest at Gombe National Park. The project, started in 1994, has proved very successful and has since been replicated in several other countries in Africa.
