This assessment was designed to cover the expected components of a new Mahale population, health and environment (PHE) project that addresses fisheries, forestry and primary and reproductive health around Mahale Mountain National Park in Tanzania.

A baseline socioeconomic assessment in the 10 villages within 20 km of Mahale Mountains National Park was performed in June and July 2011. It used a qualitative-quantitative approach with key informant interviews, focus group discussions, and a survey of 487 households.  The World Bank poverty framework was used to assess opportunities, empowerment and security indicators.
