The Tanzania Conservation Resource Centre (CRC) is a non-profit educational and research-support organization based in Arusha, Tanzania. Founded in 2006, the Centre has a small library of primarily conservation materials (both electronic and in print) and provides services for visiting researchers and local students.
CRC has operated for over five years in Tanzania, supporting conservation and wildlife research through capacity-building and networking for local and foreign researchers and students. The Centre has an office near the Njiro cinema complex in Arusha, and provides logistical, informational and networking support.
The CRC provides a way for students to connect with researchers and their projects, and provides a database of both projects and of students seeking positions.

“In a world which furnishes so many employments which are useful, and so many which are amusing, it is our own fault if we ever know what ennui [boredom] is, or if we are ever driven to the miserable resource of gaming, which corrupts our dispositions, and teaches us a habit of hostility against all mankind.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“Old politicians, like old actors, revive in the limelight. The vacancy which afflicts them in private momentarily lifts when, once more, they feel the eyes of an audience upon them. Their old passion for holding the centre of the stage guides their uncertain footsteps to where the footlights shine, and summons up a wintry smile when the curtain rises.”
—Malcolm Muggeridge (1903–1990)
