🌾 Promoting Sustainable Livelihoods in Tanzania

Empowering Communities, Protecting the Planet
By EarthCareFoundation

At EarthCareFoundation, we believe that true environmental sustainability must go hand-in-hand with economic empowerment. That’s why one of our core missions is to promote sustainable livelihoods — helping communities in Tanzania earn a decent living while preserving natural resources for future generations.

💡 What Are Sustainable Livelihoods?

Sustainable livelihoods are income-generating activities that:

  • Use resources responsibly
  • Strengthen community resilience
  • Adapt to environmental changes
  • Preserve biodiversity
  • Reduce poverty in a lasting way

From organic farming to renewable energy, we’re helping people move away from harmful practices like deforestation and unsustainable agriculture — toward greener, more secure sources of income.


🌱 Our Approach in Action

🧑🏽‍🌾 Agroecology & Climate-Smart Farming

We train smallholder farmers in organic techniques, crop diversification, and soil conservation. This not only boosts food security but also regenerates the land.

🧵 Eco-Income for Women & Youth

Through vocational training in solar installation, clean energy, and recycling-based crafts, we equip women and youth with skills for green employment and entrepreneurship.

♻️ Waste-to-Wealth Projects

In urban areas, we run pilot programs where youth collect, recycle, and repurpose waste — turning plastic and organic waste into products like bricks, compost, and reusable bags.

☀️ Community Renewable Energy

With our support, communities manage small-scale solar and biogas systems — reducing fuelwood dependence and opening new business opportunities (charging stations, cold storage, etc.).


📈 Impact So Far

  • 50+ farmers trained in eco-farming
  • 120 women & youth supported with green skills
  • 05 villages using community biogas or solar systems
  • Pilot “Green Microenterprise Hubs” launched in Kigoma

“Now I earn money from selling compost and vegetables while keeping the soil healthy. EarthCareFoundation changed my family’s life.” – Mzee Hamisi, farmer in Uvinza
