Meet Our People
ACARE has passionate staff, consultants, and board members working around the world and across many disciplines. We are scientists, economists, engineers, communicators, and decision-makers – all connected by our dedication to sustainable development and the health of the African Great Lakes.
Our History
Calls for organizations to collaborate and strengthen science on freshwater resources have occurred for decades. In 2017, ACARE was created to do just that.
It takes more than a village: that is why we partner with many organizations, in Africa, and globally to address the challenges facing the African Great Lakes.
Opportunities
We often seek experts to help us address the issues that face the African Great Lakes.
