Committed to safeguarding the Lake Tanganyika ecosystem whilst improving the welfare of her local communities

Our Vision
A healthy Lake Tanganyika with thriving fish populations, forests and people.
Protecting Special-ness
Many fishing nets get snagged on rocks, and pieces are broken off. Although broken, they still pose massive environmental hazards, destroying innocent fish populations.
A group of divers from SUSTAIN recently performed an environmental dive to clear the area of old discarded nets
