The government says Maasai families are voluntarily moving away from conservation areas
The European Parliament has condemned the eviction of indigenous Maasai people in Tanzania in the name of conservation.
The resolution comes after attempts by the authorities to evict the Maasai from areas in and around the famous Serengeti national park.
The EU said that indigenous rights were a non-negotiable part of any conservation initiative.
Tanzania’s government has denied forcefully evicting the Maasai people, saying they have been moving voluntarily.
