Summary

SVC, Southeast Lowveld, Zimbabwe, is one of Africa’s largest conservancies, being part of the Greater Limpopo Trans Frontier Conservation Area (GLTFCA). SVC supports critical populations of rare, threatened, and endangered (RTE) species such as an IUCN-listed ‘Key 1’ population of black rhinos and an ‘Important 1’ population of white rhino, wild dog, and pangolin. This project aims to enhance anti-poaching and IWT work in SVC to protect these key species, effectively engage communities in anti-poaching and reduce human wildlife conflict.
