Zimbabwe is in the KAZA region and KAZA boasts of hosting more than 60 per cent of the world’s elephant population.
We will discuss how wildlife impacts ordinary people and how we can manage human-wildlife conflict.
We want to come up with resolutions which will be good for conservation and make sure people living with wildlife also benefit.
There will be various international speakers and our own Zimbabweans will contribute to the deliberations.
The summit is most opportune to reflect on this important species as well as recalibrate strategies to ensure that appropriate benefits accrue to nations and respective communities
KAZA stands for Kavango–Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area and is situated in a region of Southern Africa where the international borders of five countries converge. The five countries are Zimbabwe, Zambia, Namibia, Botswana and Angola.
