Home « WAVE – Water-based aid, value and engagement Despite being so isolated the future and fate of the Lake Tanganyika Basin could not be more connected to the rest of the world. Rich in natural resources like oil and minerals and a place of enormous environmental importance because it contains one fifth of the worlds fresh water and more unique species than the Galapagos the lake exists at the nexus of several global struggles and is increasingly attracting the attention of outside interests ranging from multinational energy and mining corporations to global powers. The lake region is home to millions of indigenous and displaced poor spread across four countries Democratic Republic of the Congo Tanzania Burundi and Zambia. Recognizing the complexity of the region the organization has mobilized itself to engage on policy legislation and technologies that promote effective development transparency and ensure the safety of Lake Tanganyikas populations.
