A successful wildlife monitoring means monitoring data collected in time, focusing in efficiency to provide precisely the right information needed to make rightful decision in wildlife management.

Tanzania Natural Resource Forum (TNRF) facilitated Management Oriented Monitoring System (MOMS) training to Village Game Scouts (VGS) from 26^th -28^th April, 2021 at Boma ng’ombe, Kilimanjaro.

Climate change is a socio-economical issue around the world; its implications are increasing on food security and rural livelihoods thus access to sufficient food at the household level is decreasing. At the same time capabilities, assets and activities required to make a meaningful living are hindered; for instance, livelihood activities in rural areas such as farming are worse hurt by climate change. Responding to this situation, it is important that people especially the rural population are aware and have a good understanding on climate change, its impact and possibilities of sustainable livelihood.
