Savannah Vision Tanzania (SVTa) is a non-governmental organization that was established in May 2022 by a group of passionate and committed individuals who sought to secure the funding necessary to empower marginalized communities in Tanzania and for protecting their terrestrial ecosystems 1. The founders were inspired by the global effort to ensure sustainable and equitable development through UN SDGs goals 1. SVTa was motivated in part by the current financial difficulties facing the Tanzania government in allocating enough funds for development projects 1. We, therefore, feel that fundraising will help Tanzanian communities achieve targets for SDGs 4, 8, 15, and 17 1. SVTa has drafted a development plan which was approved by its Board of Directors and which will guide its current and future engagements 1. Mr. Thomas and four other founders who signed the SVTa plan of action are spreading the details of SVTa in a series of meetings. This includes choosing the name Savannah Vision Tanzania (SVTa) and adopting a logo 1. SVTa is striving to build a network and database of supporters to help it financially and technically 1.
Savannah Vision Tanzania (SVTa) aspires to lead in the provision of quality education, community livelihood empowerment, management, and restoration of the terrestrial ecosystem in Tanzania at the intersection of education livelihood, and environment. SVTa collaborates with local communities to conserve the natural resources we all depend on and build a future in which people and nature thrive. Together with partners at all levels, SVTa transforms markets and policies toward sustainability and tackles the threats driving poverty and environmental degradation.
