Usangu Wetlands Research Project and Expedition Camp

A multi-year research project of the Usangu wetlands in South-Central Tanzania, to determine how the area could be sustainably developed to promote investment for safari tourism, while also assessing needs in terms of infrastructural and conservation upgrades. Research and planning funded by Norfund and Six Rivers and project coordinated and implemented by Asilia, culminating in the Usangu Expedition Camp opening in June 2022. The neighboring Douglas Bell Eco Research Station offers the opportunity for guests to engage with research projects and develop a deeper understanding of the crucial work being performed in the area.
