About Us

Foundation for Environmental Protection in Tanzania (FEPT) is a youth-led NGO based in Arusha, Tanzania focusing on making environmental change by positively influencing communities through the designing and implementation of environmental programs which create sustainability and make the Earth a better place to live.

FEPT aims to support a community in mitigating the impact of climate change through climate advocacy, land restoration, and promoting sustainable land use in Tanzania. It works closely with stakeholders as well as local communities in designing and implementing interventions that mitigate against adverse effects of global warming, desertification, improper land use, wildlife crimes and human-wildlife conflicts, poor waste management, and knowledge gap in conservation and protection of ecosystems.
