Introducing Conservation Lower Zambezi

Poaching, habitat, encroachment and other resource abuse occurs throughout most of the world, including Zambia, and CLZ has risen to the challenge of taking remedial action in the Lower Zambezi - BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.
 

 

It is anticipated that a better informed next generation will take more environmentally-responsible decisions by CLZ providing the following:-

• Environmental Education through field and class studies AND

• Outreach and sensitization programmes within the surrounding communities.

CLZ  also assists ZAWA (Zambia Wildlife Authority) in combating illegal resource use by assisting with:-

• transport (road and aerial support)

• patrol rations

• radio communications

• specialized training

• tranquilizing and treating wild animals injured by poachers.

These efforts have had a measurable positive effect in reducing the amount of poaching in the Lower Zambezi.  However, the challenge continues and CLZ can only be effective with your support.

Since its inception in 1995, CLZ has become one of Africa's foremost conservation organizations and it is being used as a role model for other areas in Africa.  If you would like to learn more about CLZ and conservation in Zambia, please feel free to page through this website or email one of CLZ's dedicated conservation team.

Thank you for your interest in conservation and CLZ.
