Tanzania backs Maasai evictions from Ngorongoro despite global backlash and rights concerns

View descriptionShare

Two presidential commissions in Tanzania have recommended the continuation of mass evictions of Maasai communities from key conservation areas, including the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The move comes despite global criticism and ongoing resistance from the Maasai, who have long lived on and relied on these ancestral lands. Human rights groups, including Survival International, have strongly condemned the recommendations, warning that they threaten both the rights and livelihoods of indigenous communities. Tsepiso Makwetla spoke to Linda Poppe from Survival International
