The value of biodiversity is that it makes our ecosystems more resilient, which is a prerequisite for stable societies; its wanton destruction is akin to setting fire to our lifeboat”

Ecological Law Enforcement
The Zimbabwe National Parks and Wildlife Management Authority, The Forestry Commission and a number of private organisations continue to work collaboratively on measures designed to eradicate poaching and the illegal harvesting of natural resources, ensure effective legal frameworks and deterrents against wildlife crime, strengthen law enforcement, and support sustainable livelihoods.

Human Wildlife Conflict Management
With the current human population growth rate, the increasing demand for natural resources and the growing pressure for access to land, conflicts over human–wildlife interactions are present. However, there are ongoing collaborative efforts by a number of organisations to find diverse and inclusive solutions to reduce and offset conflict, turning challenges into opportunities to increase public support for professional management.

Research and Biological Monitoring
Long-term biological monitoring is key to effective, evidence-based conservation management. In and around Victoria Falls there is ongoing research, disease testing, wildlife and biological monitoring with a strong focus on fostering community-based conservation methods.
