Namibia: Africa’s Conservation Success Story…

13/06/2018
Namibia is soul-stirring. It is characterized by vast open spaces and the most profound scenery, often dramatically beautiful.

It is a place of great contrasts, from ocean and dunes to mountains and deserts. Most importantly, it is a conservation success story.

It was the first African country to incorporate the protection of the environment into its constitution. The government reinforces this by giving its communities the opportunity and the rights to manage their wildlife through communal conservancies. This has facilitated a remarkable recovery in wildlife. While numbers of African endangered species are on the decline, this is nothing short of a phenomenal achievement. Elephants, cheetahs, and black and white rhino are flourishing. In fact, Namibia has the largest number of free-roaming black rhino in the world and is seen as one the best places to spot the desert-adapted elephant.
