The Africa Hub [ATTA] recently held a training session to introduce the Kavango Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area, KAZA. Nearly 280 agents registered to watch the training hosted by KAZA Tourism.
Transfrontier Conservation Areas are a relatively new concept in the conservation arena. They are founded on the realisation that natural resources that straddle international boundaries are a shared asset with the potential to meaningfully contribute to the conservation of biodiversity and the welfare and socio-economic development of rural communities.
Kavango Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (commonly referred to as KAZA) incorporates 5 countries (Angola, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia). There are 36 formally proclaimed protected areas made up of a host of game reserves, forest reserves, game/wildlife management areas, and communal lands in KAZA and 3 UNESCO World Heritage Sites (Victoria Falls, Okavango and Tsodilo Hills).
