Statement of intent
To establish an internationally recognised big five wildlife reserve within the Loziba Community Conservancy, that is:
• a flagship private- (< 30%) and community owned (> 70%) collaborative involvement and upliftment project;
• a sanctuary for the conservation of ordinary- and endangered fauna & flora including the black rhino;
• to implement proven ecological practices to manage all aspects of biodiversity;
• an eco system that is based on sustainable utilization to the advantage of all involved;
• ultimately the only practical solution to secure the safe existence of the 42 Mawana elephants.
