These boots were made for far more than walking.

Our rangers carry only what they can manage on foot, sometimes walking many kilometres a day. The one thing they simply cannot do without? A solid pair of boots to carry them, and their equipment, as far as the work demands. Out in our rural wildscapes, those aren't always easy to find.

That's why we're so grateful to Jim Green Boots for generously donating boots to our rangers in the Mwai Community Conservation Area in Mozambique. Now their focus can stay where it matters most, on protecting wildlife.

A heartfelt thank you to Jim Green, and to the Game Rangers Association of Africa for making it happen. We can't wait to see what our rangers do with their new gear!

Seven new rangers. Eight weeks of training. One very proud day.

This World Ranger Day we're celebrating our seven scouts who have completed their Basic Field Ranger Training delivered by Mellivora. These photos are from last week's passing-out parade the remote wilderness of Chipanje Chetu Community Conservation Area, where they received their certificates. These scouts will be deployed to the Mwai Community Conservation Area in Mozambique.

Eight weeks in the field is hard. Early starts, long patrols, real discipline. They earned every bit of this.

Huge thanks to the Yambone Conservation team at Lipilichi Wilderness for hosting us, and to Wildcat for backing this from the start.

To every ranger out there today, thank you for what you do. Nature is our future.

Thank you to Akashinga for their invaluable support of our work in Namibia.

Kunene is indeed a remarkable place - as beautiful and rich in biodiversity as it is harsh and dry. We are grateful to work there and to work with the people who have long protected its ecosystems and everything that relies on them.

Despite the challenges of living alongside wildlife such as elephants and lions, the communities of Kunene are steadfast in their commitment to finding solutions.

They share our belief that nature is our future.

Happy World Environment Day! 🌿

“Inspired by nature. For climate. For our future.” Today’s theme feels especially close to home, and we’re excited to share that the Mwai Landscape Project, our community-led wildscape initiative on the southern coast of Mozambique, has been accepted into the Plan Vivo Accelerator Programme. Tangible action for our future.

With over 25 years of experience, Plan Vivo is a leading certification standard for high-integrity nature-based projects. Internationally recognised for its rigorous requirements, credible methodologies and participatory approach, Plan Vivo helps locally-led initiatives access carbon and nature markets. Their Accelerator Programme gives projects like ours the expert Technical and Commercial and Investment Readiness support needed to grow from a strong community-led vision into a fully operational, sustainable carbon project. One that creates real, lasting benefit for the people who call this land home.

The Mwai landscape connects Maputo National Park with Tembe Elephant Park across the Mozambique-South Africa border, forming part of the Futi Corridor, a wildlife link that matters far beyond any single boundary. Six communities call it home. They are rising as the rightful stewards and champions of this remarkable place.

We can’t wait to share more of this journey with you. Read about it here: https://conserveglobal.earth/blog/mwai-landscape-project/

Grateful to the management of Parque Nacional de Maputo (Maputo National Park) for convening this important meeting on human-wildlife conflict mitigation in the Mwai region.

The meeting brought together a strong coalition of stakeholders: the Maputo Environmental Protection Area, the Mwai Community Reserve, the Community Association for Conservation of the Futhi Corridor, local leadership from Salamanga, the local police, and community leaders from Tchia, Matchia, Mussongue, Huco, Madjadjane, and Massale.

Where communities and wildlife share the same wildscapes, coexistence requires more than goodwill. It requires structure, dialogue, and a shared commitment to finding solutions that protect both people and nature. For the families farming in the buffer zone and the children walking to school each day, this work is urgent, and it matters.

Africa's most pressing conservation challenges are human ones. The answers lie with the communities who call these places home, and meetings like this one are where those answers begin to take shape.

This quarter, the Conserve Global team moved into Massale, making a permanent home inside the Mwai Community Concession alongside the communities they work with. Some milestones are quiet. This is one of them.

In Mozambique, thirty community members completed 10 km of the Gebeza boundary fence for the adjacent Maputo National Park, on time and on budget. A major institutional milestone followed in February: the granting of the FDSC operating licence, enabling Conserve's newly established in-country Foundation to begin formal operations in Mwai.

In Namibia's Kunene Highlands, lion activity in the southern Orupupa Conservancy was managed through targeted mitigation, with deterrents deployed to reduce conflict and protect both people and wildlife. While interactions with lions should be avoided, it's wonderful to see them active in the thriving ecosystem of Kunene.

Conserve management also visited universities, vocational colleges, and local schools across the Kunene and Mwai areas to explore partnerships for staff development and bursary opportunities for community members.

A quarter of firsts and quiet milestones. Communities prove what becomes possible when they hold genuine ownership of their future.

This World Biodiversity Day, picture two wild places.

In Namibia’s Kunene Highlands, desert-adapted elephants travel great distances between water and can go days without a drink. Black rhino and cheetah move through the dry country, and rosy-faced lovebirds nest in the cliff crevices. Drought is a way of life here, and a changing climate is making it harder.

In Mozambique, the Mwai community’s land lies within one of the richest natural areas on Earth, where rare sand forest shelters elephants, leopards, and more than 2,500 plant species found nowhere else.

Both places are living corridors for wildlife, and both are protected by communities that choose conservation as they shape their futures. In Kunene, people helped build solar-powered water points so that families and wildlife can share the water during the dry season. In Mwai, six villages secured their land, chose conservation, and built a 43-kilometre fence, creating more than 150 local jobs.

These actions matter far beyond their points of origin. That is the heart of this year’s theme for today's International Day for Biological Diversity: “Acting locally for global impact”. A reminder that global goals are reached through local commitment, with local knowledge, and by people who make nature their priority.

Because nature is our future
Thank you to every community walking this road with us.

The heartbeat of conservation is partnership

Our latest Progress Report shows that conservation of Africa’s wildscapes does require sound science and strategic action, but it is particularly effective because of the enduring value of the relationships that sustain it.

Quarter 4 of 2025 (October–December) saw local leadership take the reins, and these crucial relationships deepen through a shared commitment to a future where nature conserves us.

Some highlights from the report:

➡️Peaceful human-wildlife coexistence reached a major milestone with the completion of a 43 km barrier fence in the Mwai Community Concession in Mozambique, and the Mwai Association held its first independently run AGM, a significant step for local governance and long-term success.

➡️ Local stewardship in Kunene, Namibia, was strengthened through the upgrading of water infrastructure and training of water-point committees, ensuring water security for both people and wildlife.

➡️ Analysis of the population surveys on crocodiles and hippos in Faro, Cameroon, provided the first-ever comprehensive baselines for these key species and a foundation for informed management.

➡️ In the Suguta Valley of Kenya, restored infrastructure and moments of peacebuilding in the Suguta Valley have reaffirmed the link between thriving ecosystems and resilient livelihoods.

These milestones show that conservation can drive community prosperity, and the echo heard throughout the wildcapes we work in is that nature is our future.
