The consortium of organization under the Northern Tanzania Rangelands Initiative (NTRI) approached ACP last year with a view to adopting the Amboseli Ecosystem Monitoring Program for all locations under its coverage. ACP conducted a training program at Big Life Centre between August 14th and 16th the same year, through the Borderlands Conservation Initiative. The training workshop included participants from HoneyGuide (HG), Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), Tanzania People and Wildlife (TPW) and Progetto Oikos. The Uaso Nyiro Baboon Project in Kenya also attended. The workshop was conducted by David Western, Victor Mose and David Maitumo from ACP and staff of ACC, with support from the Amboseli Resource Assessors (RA’s), Paul Kasaine, Samuel Lekanaiya and George Sunte. A full report of the workshop was submitted to LCAOF in the Final Report of ACP for 2015.
NTRI included the ecological monitoring program in its proposal to US AID, which was secured in early 2016. NTRI then requested ACP to conducted field training for newly recruited Resource Assessors. Victor Mose, Pete Tyrrell and David Maitumo carried out the RA training for NTRI.
The next phase of RA training and integration of monitoring across the northern Tanzania and Kenya borderlands will take place at the Lale’enok Center in the South Rift late in 2016.
