Tengeneza Generation

Tengeneza Generation (TEG) is a youth-led organization based in the Morogoro region of Tanzania. Registered and active since 2014, TEG has trained over 250 youth groups in conservation and environmental issues. Their vision is to work with young people as the champions of change within their communities. In turn, they work with their families and neighbours to drive the protection of biodiversity around their homes.

Their focus is the Eastern Arc Mountains, which are one of the most biodiverse areas in Africa with a spectacular array of flora and fauna. The beautiful mountains that make up the Eastern Arc are also a secret gem for hiking and tourism. TEG works closely with communities, respecting local culture to drive change and ecotourism.

Their hard-working young people use innovative ways to help communities value their environment and recognize the value of the ecosystem around them.
