World Snake Day 2023
World Snake Day, held every year on July 16, aims to increase awareness regarding the over 3,500 snake species that exist in the world. Not all of snakes are venomous as majority believe.

we increase awareness on snakes and snakebites
Raising awareness on snakes and snakebites in Tanzania and Africa is a critical step towards minimizing the impact of snakebite incidents. Through education, community engagement, media campaigns, and collaboration, individuals and communities can develop a deeper understanding of snakes, adopt preventive measures, and respond appropriately in case of a snakebite. By prioritizing snakebite awareness, we can save lives, reduce disabilities, and build a safer environment for both humans and snakes in Tanzania and across the African continent.
