It is guided by its Constitution and a five year strategy 2017 – 2022. Nature Tanzania is a national membership-based conservation NGO.

Tanzania country is rich in biodiversity and therefore very important for conservation. The country has recorded over 1,200 species of birds. We are using birds as indicators of ecosystem health and a tool for biodiversity conservation. The organization is under the Non-Governmental Organizations Act, 2002 to operate in Tanzania mainland. We are working with communities, the private sector and the government in areas identified as Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas (IBA) and Key Biodiversity Areas (KBA).
Our projects and initiatives are contributing towards delivery of goal 1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 14 and 15 of the SDGs. They also contributed to the following Aichi Biodiversity Targets; 1, 3, 4, 7, 9, 12 and 14. We are also piloting Nature Based Solutions (NbS). NbS are becoming important in addressing global societal challenges i.e. climate change, food and water security, human health and socio-economic development.
