Conservation Centre Brings Communities On Board
Recognising that community involvement is critical for the success of tourism and conservation initiatives, the Isibindi Africa collection of lodges has opened a new conservation centre that simultaneously acts as a skills development platform.
The Isibindi Foundation, which runs a number of conservation and community beneficiation projects at the collections three lodges in KwaZulu Natal and one on the Zambezi River in Zambia, recently opened the Mphoswa Isibindi Community Conservation Centre in the Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park.
The educational hub is dedicated to cultivating a deeper understanding of conservation among the residents of the surrounding Mpembeni community.
