Tanzania’s conservation efforts face scrutiny as reports emerge of human rights abuses by Ruaha National park rangers. Such incidents highlight escalating conflicts between conservation authorities and local communities. Tanzania’s focus on conservation and tourism development, backed by international funding, has led to land disputes and disruptions to indigenous livelihoods. The World Bank’s withdrawal of $150 million from Tanzania’s REGROW project underscores concerns over human rights violations. Ruaha National Park is situated west of Iringa town in south-central Tanzania. Spanning an elevation of 2,500 to 5,200 feet (750 to 1,900 m), it covers 5,000 square miles (12,950 square km). Initially, it was part of the Rungwa Game Reserve.
