TANZANIA (eTN) – Among key dignitaries attending the week-long, ongoing International Institute for Peace through Tourism (IIPT) Symposium in South Africa, is the Conservator for Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority, one of Africaโ€™s tourist hotspots, Dr. Freddy Manongi.

In recognizing the role of conservation for responsible tourism and community development initiatives, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority in northern Tanzania stands as a model example of a place in the world where local communities have been given a stake in tourism benefits.

Established in 1959 and covering an area of 8,300 kilometers, Ngorongoro is a place where wildlife and humans live in a multiple land-use plan for conservation and livestock pasturing uses.

Together with the Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro supports the greatest concentration of wildlife left on Earth.

In this eTN Executive Talk, Dr. Manongi gives a highlight on community benefit strategies carried out in the Conservation Area.
