Raise local, national and international awareness of the Eastern Afromontane Biodiversity Hotspot by highlighting the incredible biodiversity of the Southern Highlands KBAs in Tanzania. Focusing on an international audience of policy makers, donors and the general public, WCS will develop high quality communication materials that showcase the beauty of these KBAs, and their ecological, cultural and economic value, through photography, graphics and art, based on existing social and biological data.
