មានការព្រួយបារម្ភថាហ្គ្រោហ្គោសទាំងនេះ, ទាំងសំបូរទៅដោយធម្មជាតិនិងតម្លៃវប្បធម៌, កំពុងរងការបំផ្លាញនិងធ្វេសប្រហែស, មេដឹកនាំភូមិ, traditional elders and young people recently teamed up with local and international organisations to document their oral history and plan for their better care.
Using a technique called participatory video (តម្លៃសង្គមនិងជីវវិទ្យា) members of Jambiani and Paje villages on the South East Coast of Zanzibar Island formed two film crews, each to record different aspects of some of their Groves. The training was given by Mwambao Coastal Community Network, a Tanzanian organisation based in Zanzibar. “There was quite a ‘buzz’ in the training workshop” said Mwambao Country Coordinator, Hajj Hajj, “The teams were very keen to learn about the equipment and keen to get going to make their own films”.
Ali Mtumwa Hassan the village custodian responsible for all sacred sites; “There are 32 ancestral sacred sites, several of which are forest groves in our village of Jambiani and 38 sacred sites in the sea”.
«ភូមិ Paje មានព្រៃព្រៃ, គុហានិងតំបន់បើកចំហដែលជាពិសិដ្ឋ. ថែរក្សានេះគឺនៅក្នុងគ្រួសារ, មួយ

Despite the very long history of the sacred groves things are now different. Hassan Ali Haji of Shotele sacred cave complained “things have changed a lot and the protection of the sites is a challenge. មនុស្សវ័យក្មេងមិនគោរពប្រពៃណី, មនុស្សជាច្រើននៃដើមឈើធំត្រូវបានកាត់បន្ថយ. ភ្ញៀវទេសចរចូលមកមុជទឹកក្នុងគុហានិងរបស់យើងហើយយើងមិនបានទទួលផលប្រយោជន៍នៅក្នុងវិធីណាមួយនិងផ្លូវមួយត្រូវបានកាត់បន្ថយដែលធ្វើឱ្យវាងាយស្រួលក្នុងការឈានទៅដល់គុហានេះ ".
Hoping that the participatory video will increase interest and knowledge of the groves Mzee Ame Haji commented “We have made these films to record the traditions of our villages. We have interviewed those from Paje and Jambiani and we would like to inform neighbouring villages and all of Zanzibar so that we can save our ancestral sacred sites and sacred groves”
