Our People
Join the Herd
Founded in 2005, our teams have grown to 200+ people who implement an ambitious, community-driven, and effective approach to conservation across multiple landscapes in Tanzania.
The organization’s regional headquarters, the Noloholo Environmental Center, was built on land donated by a local Maasai community near Tarangire National Park. It serves as a program hub and education center for African People & Wildlife and our sister organization, Tanzania People & Wildlife.

Future Opportunities
Women in Conservation Mentorships
Through our African Women in Conservation Initiative, we offer internship opportunities for Tanzanian women to sharpen their knowledge and conservation skills. We are not accepting new applications at this time.
The feeling of urgency electrifies our teams. We are driven by the need to ACT NOW and to ensure that our conservation efforts make a real difference for key species like lions and elephants.
