Accomplishments

We have passed a number of important milestones over the last five years, thanks in large part to the generous funding from a number of consistent supporters in Tanzania and beyond, including:
--	The early phases of GOSESO development, including a feasibility study and partnership building The design and implementation of our grass-roots, indigenous-based educational curriculum Significant progress on land compensation within Kitobe Forest, yet more work remains - including restoring the forest (see images below) to serve as the educational, research, and administrative campus of GOSESO The incorporation of GOSESO as a legally recognized institution in both Tanzania and the USA Our continued effort to increase capacity and quality of our academic and outreach programs for both the "School within Walls" and "School without Walls," including the construction of seven new buildings Our founder's completion of his Ph.D. degree in human dimensions of natural resource management and resilient livelihoods by GOSESO founder Dr. Yared Fubusa at Utah State University, USA
These two before and after pictures of the exact same location (one year apart) demonstrate our proven successes in turning barren lands into forests.
