01 — Grants to Impact
Blue Green Tanzania Consult helps NGOs win grants and implement environmental projects — from the ocean floor to the forest floor.
02 — Seabed to Shoreline
From Tanga to Mtwara, we have mapped thousands of kilometres of Tanzania's seabed — giving decision-makers the science they need to protect coastal ecosystems.
03 — People First
We train, empower, and walk alongside coastal communities — because lasting conservation only works when the people who live there are leading it.
04 — Trusted Partners
Our work meets the standards of the world's most competitive conservation funders — delivered by a team that knows Tanzania's coast, communities, and ecosystems from the inside.

What We Do
Four focus areas. Healthy ecosystems on land and at sea, empowered communities, capable institutions.
Coral reef surveys, seabed mapping, seagrass assessments, marine protected area support, blue carbon, and community-based ocean management.

In partnership with ASUTA. Funded by USAID and the EU.
Together with ASUTA, we have delivered four major marine conservation projects across Tanzania — mapping the seabed, training coastal communities, and strengthening Beach Management Units. We are now leading Tanzania's most comprehensive marine ecosystem assessment, commissioned by The Nature Conservancy under the EU's €110M Blue Economy Programme.

Six attributes that make us responsive to complex coastal diagnostics.
Insights
Field notes on the Blue Economy, climate adaptation and coastal governance.
Featured · Marine ConservationFrom Tanga to Mtwara and across Zanzibar — Tanzania's coral reefs, seagrass, and seaweed ecosystems are being surveyed for the first time in a single, nationally coordinated effort. We are leading that work, and here is what we are finding, how we are doing it, and why it matters.

Marine Conservation
8,893 photographs. Six districts. Two marine parks. Combining our northern Dar es Salaam and southern coast benthic surveys under the USAID Heshimu Bahari programme produced the most detailed picture of Tanzania's underwater world ever created. Here is what the data showed and why it matters.

When we trained over 750 coastal community members across Dar es Salaam and Mtwara, the numbers were the least interesting part. What mattered was what changed — in knowledge, in confidence, and in how communities now relate to the ocean they depend on.

Fund Mobilisation
Most NGOs in Tanzania have good ideas. Very few consistently win the funding to act on them. After helping secure grants from USAID and the European Union, here are the practical lessons we have learned about what separates proposals that win from those that do not.
