MIAZO

In Tanzania degraded land among indigenous pastoralist and rural communities is driving poverty, displacement, biodiversity loss, and conflict among indigenous pastoralists. This is reducing pasture, increasing competition for water and grazing resources, and fueling conflicts that threaten livelihoods, education, and community stability. We created MIAZO to help indigenous communities restore degraded ecosystems through the 90.ASG™ Shared Grazing System while strengthening local governance, youth leadership, climate knowledge, and peaceful resource sharing for generations to come.

We work with indigenous pastoralist and rural communities living in Tanzania's climate-vulnerable drylands, particularly Maasai communities whose livelihoods depend on livestock and healthy grazing ecosystems. We engage elders, women, youth, herders, traditional leaders, local governments, schools, and community-based organizations to collectively restore shared grazing lands, strengthen indigenous governance, and build peaceful, climate-resilient communities through the 90.ASG™ Shared Grazing System
