🇳🇦Namibia

An umbrella alliance supporting Namibia's communal conservancies, which grant rural and indigenous communities legal rights to govern and profit from their own land and wildlife.

Backed by the Nyae Nyae Development Foundation, the Ju/'hoansi San of Namibia's Kalahari run an early-season controlled-burning program that has turned a conservancy once devastated by wildfire into a model of community fire mapping.
