CLZ 2020 Impact Report

Posted on in News, Wildlife

Conservation Lower Zambezi (CLZ) was incredibly excited to share their Impact Report 2020, especially as it was an unprecedented year for all during the COVID-19 pandemic.

During a year of adversity, the CLZ team, the Department of National Parks and Wildlife, their local community and with support from their generous donors network, all banded together, and along with an outpouring of support, were able to persevere in their commitment to protect the environment and wildlife of Lower Zambezi.

Their 2020 report highlights many of their conservation activities undertaken throughout the year, including recording the lowest number of elephants being poached since their monitoring first started in 2001.

“During this time patrols, and our general operations never skipped a beat, despite the new COVID protocols introduced to protect the scouts, and our teams where we are proud to report one of the lowest poaching levels on record.” Anita Barrett, Chairperson, CLZ
