Green Safaris, operators of several top lodges in Zambia, have released their 2024 annual report with a breakdown of spending and support for conservation projects.
Some of the highlights include:
- Eight check dams were built in Kafue National Park to keep water flowing during droughts
- USD75 000 was donated to partners such as Conservation South Luangwa, Panthera and African Parks to support riverine-savannah habitats
- Six nursery schools were funded with scholarships for 60 secondary and 12 university students
- Sustainable stoves were given to villagers to reduce charcoal dependency, creating carbon credits that offset almost all Green Safaris guest flights across Zambia
- Farm-to-table initiatives that save 850 000 litres of water each year were instituted
- Electric boats, game-drive vehicles and bikes are used for cleaner and quieter ways of exploring the bush
- Women now comprise 60% of the management team – women have been shown to take conservation principles into their families and communities very strongly
