Namibia Holiday & Travel - Parks & Reserves - Transfrontier Parks

 
     
  National Parks  |  Conservancies  |  Private Reserves  |  Transfrontier Parks  
     
 
The concept of Transfrontier Conservation Areas (TFCAs), formerly referred to as Peace Parks, has rapidly gained momentum in SADC countries such as Namibia, Angola, Mozambique, Botswana, South Africa, Zimbabwe and Zambia. TFCAs are transfrontier wildlife sanctuaries that embrace cross-border conservation areas and game parks. The objective is for such conservation areas to be managed by public and private-sector partnerships backed by intergovernmental negotiations and funded by global donor organisations.

The first TFCA in the region was the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, which incorporates parks in Botswana and South Africa. This park is proving highly successful in terms of bookings. The second one, the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Conservation Area, was formed between South Africa, Mozambique and Zimbabwe during 2000.
