This project aims to establish community-based wildlife conservation systems which are integrated into the rural economy of Namibia, thereby linking conservation and rural development. A first step was setting up and supporting community structures to assist government in managing natural resources. This involves community game guard networks in Kaokoveld and Damaraland (now known as the Kunene region), and its extension to the Caprivi region in Namibia. WWF is a leader in international efforts to find long term solutions to benefit people and nature. Because of more than 5 million independent supporters, our conservation efforts address global threats and we work to protect endangered species and habitats in more than 100 countries around the world.
