International Development Minister Stephen O'Brien visited Mabokweni village in Tanga, Tanzania to see the mass distribution of drugs that will help to prevent and treat neglected tropical diseases. On 21 January 2012, Stephen O'Brien announced that Britain will supply more than four treatments every second for people in the developing world for the next four years as part of a global push to help eliminate infectious tropical diseases. British support is leading the way and will protect more than 140 million of the world's poorest men, women and children from the agonising pain caused by these avoidable infections which deform, disable, blind and kill. The pledge marks a five-fold increase in Britain's support as part of an international effort to help rid the world of neglected tropical diseases, currently affecting one billion people and killing more than half a million every year. It comes ahead of a conference in London on 30 January 2012 when the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, governments, NGOs, multilateral organisations and the private sector will unite to help consign the diseases to history.

(EN) The Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA) is a conservation area and a UNESCO World Heritage Site situated 180 km (110 mi) west of Arusha in the Crater Highlands area of Tanzania. The conservation area is administered by the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority, an arm of the Tanzanian government, and its boundaries follow the boundary of the Ngorongoro Division of Ngorongoro District. The Ngorongoro Crater, a large volcanic caldera, lies within the area. A population of approximately 25000 large animals, largely ungulates along with reputedly the highest density of mammalian predators in Africa, lives in the crater. Large animals in the crater include the black rhinoceros, the local population of which declined from about 108 in 1964-66 to between 11-14 in 1995, and the hippopotamus, which is very uncommon in the area. There also are many other ungulates: the wildebeest (7000 estimated in 1994), the zebra (4000), the eland, and Grant's and Thompson's gazelles (3000). The crater has the densest known population of lions, numbering 62 in 2001. On the crater rim are leopards, elephants - numbering 42 in 1987 but only 29 in 1992 - mountain reedbuck, and buffalo (4000 in 1994). However, since the 1980s the crater's wildebeest population has fallen by a quarter to about 19000 and the numbers of eland and Thomson's gazelle also have declined while the buffalo population has increased greatly, probably due to the long prevention of fire which favors high-fibrous grasses over <b>...</b>

2012 is the International Year of Sustainable Energy for All. This video is a personal reminder to me as to why this is so important. Any parents of young children out there will see what I mean when they watch this video of children singing and dancing at home in rural Tanzania by a kerosene light. Supporting organisations like SolarAid and SunnyMoney will help give people a choice as to how they light their homes.

Day Two: 20th December 2011 We left the Arusha Hotel for a morning safari around the Arusha National Park which is home to giraffe, zebra and colobus monkeys. We also got some amazing views of Mt. Meru, an active stratovolcano, which had a side collapse many years ago. The afternoon was spent travelling to Tarangire National Park which has a huge amount of elephants in herds up to 300 strong. While rushing to get to our lodge before dark we were tipped off about a cheetah sighting and ended the day on a high with this beautiful animal. Sadly our driver got a little too excited and we got to close to the cheetah and disturbed it. I don't like to disturb any animal in its home and for that I am sorry. Tomorrow there are a lot more elephants.

Day One: 19th December 2011 Today was mainly a travelling day, from Heathrow to Nairobi then Nairobi to Mt Kilimanjaro in Tanzania by plane then a quick hours drive to Arusha for a night at the Arusha Hotel. No wildlife today but things warm up tomorrow :)
