Schools are often unsafe, uninspiring and under resourced
Together, we are changing that.
We want to see a Tanzania where all children have acess to a quality education.
Our proven development model of co-production has a track record of transforming schools and improving students’ academic performance.
Our work is guided by our values which we call “slice”: Stewarding; Longevity; Integrity; Collaboration; Equity.
Who are we?
Mikuyu Tanzania (formerly Livingstone Tanzania Trust) is a community-driven development organization that partners with local stakeholders to address barriers preventing communities from overcoming poverty in rural Tanzania. Operating primarily in Babati Town, Manyara Region, we work at the intersection of education, health, and sustainable livelihoods to create lasting change identified and owned by communities themselves.

Moving forward with determination

“I was also greatly impressed by the collective and mutually responsible ethos that underpins the work of Livingstone Tanzania Trust (now known as Mikuyu Tanzania).
The fact that communities have to exhibit a social and fiscal contribution to the projects gives the work Livingstone Tanzania Trust does a healthy chance of having an impact over generations rather than just in the short term.”
