Environmental issues will be the topic of discussion at a two-day conference starting today in Tanzania's commercial capital of Dar es Salaam.
The Mwananchi Thought Leadership Forum, organized by Mwananchi Communications Limited, will focus on the theme "Exploring Tanzanian Responses and Solutions," the Guardian reports.
"Our intention is for people to realize that prevention is better than cure, to what extent there will be strategies and methods to show how we can prevent the environment from being damaged," says the company's managing director.
Some of the topics to be discussed at the forum, which is being held a few days before World Environment Day on June 5, include how the environment changes and its challenges in the development of Tanzania, the environment and innovation, the environment that can affect the availability of food, and the way in which water sources and other environmental sources can be put in a condition that can help the world to run.
"You can't always get results by doing something different, but by doing the same thing regularly until you reach a point where the people who it affects or causes harm can put it in their minds and that's when change can happen," he says.
