This special edition of Travel Africa celebrates one of the continent’s most exciting conservation success stories: the Kavango Zambezi Trans Frontier Conservation Area (KAZA TFCA). KAZA spans five countries—Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe—covering more than 520,000 square kilometres, making it the largest terrestrial transfrontier conservation area in the world. The KAZA TFCA is a vision of collaboration. Here, borders are blurred in the name of shared conservation goals and sustainable tourism opportunities. In this special report, we explore how governments, communities, and conservationists are working together to protect iconic wildlife, develop community livelihoods, and create one of Africa’s most compelling destinations.
