Vision 2030
Our vision spans all 16 countries of the Southern African Development Community (SADC), creating a network of environmental initiatives that address both local needs and regional challenges.
We envision a future where biodiversity flourishes, communities prosper through sustainable livelihoods, and natural resources are managed responsibly for current and future generations.
"We believe that environmental sustainability and community development must go hand in hand. One cannot succeed without the other."
