This report draws on the findings from research undertaken as part of the Accountability in Tanzania (AcT) Programme, and examines the Mama Misitu (“Mother Forests”) Campaign (MMC). This was launched in 2008 as a collective response to the TRAFFIC report by a coalition of civil society organisations that are members of the Tanzania Forestry Working Group (TFWG), and coordinated by the Tanzania Natural Resource Forum (TNRF).
