The Program

Vision Statement

In 10 years, we envision landscapes in which marine and terrestrial ecosystems are thriving and the poor who depend on them have better lives and broader options, and are active participants in a governance framework that ensures that natural resources are managed for both current and future generations.

Overall Goal

The CARE-WWF Alliance will significantly increase food and livelihood security and opportunities for coastal inhabitants of northern Mozambique and southern Tanzania, while demonstrably improving the conservation of ecosystems and species of global importance.

About the Program

CARE and WWF launched the Primeiras & Segundas Livelihoods Program in northern Mozambique in 2008. Now in its fifth year, the program is working to conserve and improve the fragile ecosystem of the Primeiras and Segundas archipelago, while strengthening the livelihoods of the communities that depend on the area’s marine and terrestrial resources. The Primeiras & Segundas Program is made possible by generous grants from the Sall Family Foundation and Michael Philipp, with additional support from The Nature Conservancy, and the Millenium Challenge Account.
