Kwa miaka mingi iliopita tumekuwa tukijuiliza kama kuna maana ya kuendelea na tamasha hili Lakini kwa mara nyingine maudhurio ya zaidi watu 3000 yamedhihirisha kwamba tamasha lina umhimu wake .

Hakuna sehemu yoyote ya ulimwengu ambayo haina virusi vya korona, lakini watu wa Tanzania wamepata njia za kuishi nayo. Ali Juma, mfanyabiashara mwenye banda ndani ya Ngome Kongwe alisema virusi vya korona sio vya kuondoka hivi karibuni kwa hiyo ni muhimu kujifunza kuishi navyo huku tukichukuwa taadhari kama wanavyo shauri wataalam

Wasanii nao walitoa hisia kama hizo wakati wa kutumbuiza na hata baada huku wakisisitiza kwamba maisha yao yanategemea majukwaa. Kutokana vizuizi vya kusafiri vilivyoweka na nchi nyingi tamasha liliamua kwenda na vipaji kutoka Tanzania. Tunashukuru wadhamini, wahisani na washirika wetu kwenye tasnia ya habari kama Plus TV waliorusha mubashara tamasha nzima kwenye DStv channeli 294.

Mazingira Yetu, Maisha Yetu

Kampeni ya Sauti za Busara 2021 ilikuwa ni ‘MazingiraYetu, MaishaYetu’ (Our Environment, Our Life).

Mradi huu uliangazia kuongeza uelewa, kutangaza mazungumzo na matendo ya kusaidia mazingira. Matukio yaliangazia matumizi endelevu ya vifaa vya plastiki na hatari plastiki zinazotumika kwa mara moja (single use) mazingira ya bahari, uvuvi usiofaa, kukata miti hovyo na mengineyo.

Katika kuelekea kipindi cha Tamasha, Busara imeshirikiana na taasisi nyingine ‘The Creative Education Foundation Zanzibar’ shule ya watoto yatima na wenye mazingira magumu ili kuwawezesha wanafunzi kupata elimu ya mazingira moja kwa moja.

Wanafunzi arobaini walifanya safari ya kwenda kisiwa cha Chumbe ambapo waliweza kujifunza jinsi ya kuvuna maji ya mvua, uhifadhi wa maji, utengenezaji wa mbolea asili na bustani enedelevu. Darasani walisoma kuhusu matumbawe na samaki, na kupata fursa ya kutembelea miti ya mikoko na jinsi ya utunzaji wa kisiwa. Majadiliano ya athari za plastiki ikafuatiwa na shughuli za uzamiaji kwa ukaribu zaidi ili kurahisisha uelewa na viumbe vya baharini.

Baada ya safari ya siku, wanafunzi waliweza kuandaa michoro yenye ujumbe wa ‘MazingiraYetu, MaishaYetu’ na kufanya maonyesho Mji Mkongwe kwenye jengo la Hifadhi Zanzibar.
