Our aims

Our mission is to help conserve nature and protect vulnerable ecosystems for the benefit of all.

 

Live Streams came into being in 2022.  We recognise that mountain streams harbour a tremendous diversity of flora and fauna, including many endemic species which have high conservation value.  The streams form part of wider rivers systems which drain watersheds and support a range of ecological services which benefit both local communities and larger populations downstream.  However, streams are vulnerable to stressors such as pollution and are highly sensitive to changes in climate patterns.

 

There are many grass roots organisations in Tanzania and Malawi who are doing valuable work to conserve biodiversity and protect the environment in these habitats.  Additional support through small grants enables them to do more with their limited resources and helps to give them greater visibility.
