"More than three-quarters of UK universities have pledged to exclude fossil fuel companies from their investment portfolios, according to campaigners.

The move, which is part of a wider drive to limit investment in fossil fuels, follows years of campaigning by staff and students across the higher education sector.

The student campaign group People & Planet announced on Friday that 115 out of 149 UK universities had publicly committed to divest from fossil fuels – meaning £17.7bn-worth of endowments are now out of reach of the fossil fuel industry.

Laura Clayson, from People & Planet, said it would have been unthinkable a decade ago that so many institutions had formally refused to invest in fossil fuels.

“That we can celebrate this today is down to the generations of students and staff that have fought for justice in solidarity with impacted communities. The days of UK universities profiteering from investments in this neo-colonial industry are over.”

People & Planet set up the Fossil Free universities campaign in 2013. As part of its efforts the group has highlighted the “struggles and voices” of communities on the frontline of the climate crisis in an attempt to bring home the real-world impact of investment decisions made by UK universities.

Clayson said: “The demand for fossil-free came from frontline communities themselves and it is an act of solidarity from global north organisers campaigning on this … We have a responsibility to speak the lived experiences of the communities resisting these inequalities into megaphones at protests and in negotiations within university boardrooms, to highlight their stories of struggle in spaces so often detached from the reality of everyday life on the frontlines.”

One of the projects highlighted by the campaign is the proposed East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) – a mega project that would stretch almost 900 miles from the Lake Albert region of Uganda to the coast in Tanzania, and release vast amounts of planet-heating carbon.

The pipeline is being built in spite of local opposition, and there are reports that protesters and critics have been met with state violence. Hundreds of student organisers have been involved in the struggle.

Ntambazi Imuran Java, the lead coordinator at the Stop EACOP Uganda campaign, said its members appreciated the efforts of UK students to bring an end to universities’ fossil fuel investments.

“[This] supports those who have worked tirelessly to stop deadly extraction projects like EACOP … Regardless of the arrests and violations on the activists, students’ activists and communities, we continue to demand for the Uganda authorities to stop the project and instead invest in renewables.”

People & Planet said four UK institutions – Birmingham City University, Glasgow School of Art, Royal Northern College of Music and the University of Bradford – had recently incorporated fossil fuel exclusions into their ethical investment policies, meaning 115 out of 149 UK universities have publicly committed to divest from fossil fuels.

Later this month, the group will group will unveil its latest university league table that ranks institutions by their ethical and environmental performance. Campaigners say they will then increase pressure on the remaining 34 UK universities yet to go fossil-free."

When to Travel for Budget-Friendly Zanzibar and Safari Holidays

A Zanzibar beach and safari holiday is a dream getaway for many travelers. Combining thrilling wildlife adventures with serene beachside relaxation, Tanzania offers an unforgettable experience. But if you're planning your trip on a budget, timing is everything. Knowing when to visit can help you save significantly while still enjoying the best of what this incredible destination has to offer. Here's a guide to finding cheap holidays in Zanzibar and Tanzania's safari parks, without sacrificing quality.

1. Understand the Best Seasons for Travel

Tanzania and Zanzibar have distinct travel seasons, each offering unique advantages. To save on costs, aim to travel during the shoulder or low seasons.

High Season (June to October): This is the peak period for safaris due to the dry weather and incredible wildlife viewing, including the Great Migration in the Serengeti. However, it's also the most expensive time to travel, as accommodations and tours are in high demand.

Low Season (March to May): This is the rainy season, which deters many travelers. But for those seeking cheap holidays in Zanzibar, this period offers fantastic discounts on safari lodges and Zanzibar resorts. Wildlife is still abundant, and the rains bring lush, green landscapes.

Shoulder Season (November to February): A perfect balance between cost and experience, the shoulder season offers fewer crowds, lower prices, and excellent opportunities for both safaris and beach relaxation.

2. Plan Your Safari Wisely

The cost of your safari can vary widely depending on the timing and location. For a budget-friendly experience, consider the following tips:

Visit Lesser-Known Parks: While the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater are iconic, parks like Tarangire and Selous Game Reserve are equally rewarding and often more affordable. These destinations are perfect for a Zanzibar safari and beach holiday combination.

Opt for Group Safaris: Joining a group safari can significantly lower costs compared to a private tour. You'll share transportation, guides, and other expenses, making it an ideal choice for budget-conscious travelers.

Stay in Budget-Friendly Camps: While luxury safari lodges are tempting, budget-friendly safari camps can offer an authentic and comfortable experience at a fraction of the price.

3. Find Affordable Accommodation in Zanzibar

Zanzibar offers a range of accommodations, from opulent beachfront resorts to budget-friendly guesthouses. For cheap holidays in Zanzibar, consider staying at smaller boutique hotels or locally-owned lodges. These often provide excellent service and authentic experiences without the hefty price tag.

If you're set on experiencing luxury holidays in Zanzibar, look for offseason deals at high-end resorts. Many luxury properties offer significant discounts during the low season, allowing you to indulge in comfort and style without overspending.

4. Book Flights and Packages Strategically

Flights can be a major expense for a Zanzibar beach and safari holiday. To save money:

Book in Advance: International flights to Tanzania and Zanzibar are often cheaper when booked months ahead.

Combine Flights and Tours: Many tour operators offer combined Zanzibar safari and beach holiday packages, which include flights, accommodations, and activities. These packages can offer better value than booking everything separately.

Travel Midweek: Flights are typically cheaper on weekdays compared to weekends.

5. Prioritize Free or Low-Cost Activities

While safaris and water sports can be pricey, there are plenty of affordable activities to enjoy in Zanzibar and Tanzania. Some examples include:

Beach Relaxation: Zanzibar's pristine beaches, such as Nungwi and Kendwa, are free to explore and perfect for unwinding.

Cultural Tours: Visit Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to learn about Zanzibar's rich history and culture.

Snorkeling: Instead of costly scuba diving, opt for budget-friendly snorkeling trips to explore Zanzibar's vibrant coral reefs.

Walking Safaris: In some areas, guided walking safaris are more affordable than traditional game drives and offer a unique way to experience the wilderness.

6. Travel Sustainably and Save

Sustainable travel not only benefits the environment but can also be cost-effective. Look for eco-friendly lodges and tour operators that support local communities and conservation efforts. These establishments often offer more authentic and affordable experiences, ensuring your trip has a positive impact.

7. Combine Safari and Beach for Added Value

Many travelers opt for a Zanzibar safari and beach holiday to maximize their time and budget. Combining these two experiences into one trip reduces travel costs and ensures you get the best of both worlds. Many tour operators offer package deals that include game drives in Tanzania's national parks and relaxing stays on Zanzibar's beaches.

8. Be Flexible with Your Itinerary

Flexibility can lead to significant savings. If you're open to adjusting your travel dates or destinations, you can take advantage of last-minute deals and promotions. Traveling midweek or outside of peak holiday periods can also help you secure lower prices.

9. Pack Smart to Avoid Extra Costs

Packing the right essentials can help you avoid unnecessary expenses during your trip. Bring lightweight, neutral-colored clothing suitable for both safaris and beach days. Don't forget sunscreen, a hat, and a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated and protected from the sun.

Final Thoughts

Traveling on a budget doesn't mean compromising on the quality of your experience. By carefully planning your Zanzibar beach and safari holiday, you can enjoy thrilling wildlife encounters, pristine beaches, and even touches of luxury at an affordable price. Whether you're dreaming of cheap holidays in Zanzibar or looking to combine adventure and relaxation, Tanzania has something for everyone. Originally Article Published at:- t.ly/yLdLa
