Nukta Africa, in collaboration with the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ), today kicked off a three-day training in Tanga on Scientific Data Storytelling and Professional Reporting for JET Members and Correspondents to enhance the visibility of the PWANI YETU Project.
๐ On the first day, participants learned about the importance of marine and coastal conservationโa vital foundation for biodiversity, climate resilience, and sustainable livelihoods.
This training aims to strengthen the mediaโs role in raising public awareness, documenting project achievements, promoting transparency, and building community ownership of conservation efforts in Tanzania.
The PWANI YETU โ Our Coast Project, which the training supports, is a multi-donor initiative co-financed by the European Union (EU) and the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety, and Consumer Protection (BMUV). It is implemented by GIZ in close collaboration with the Government of Tanzania and other partners.
๐ The project focuses on conserving and sustainably managing marine and coastal ecosystems in Mkinga, Kilwa, Rufiji, and Mafia, which are critical for fisheries, tourism, the blue economy, and long-term community wellbeing.
