Abstract:

Zimbabwe has partnered four other states in the Kavango Zambezi (KAZA) Transfrontier Conservation Area (TFCA) in an agreement which will see them joining forces to combat wildlife crime. The four states that will work with Zimbabwe to defend their borders against wildlife threats are Angola, Botswana, Namibia and Zambia. Working with the KAZA Secretariat, and supported by Peace Parks Foundation and the Southern Africa Wildlife College (SAWC), and funded through a grant from the United States State Department’s Bureau for International Narcotic and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), the KAZA Partner States have embarked on an initiative to improve the capacity, synergy and effectiveness of customs and law enforcement agencies responsible for controlling movement of goods through all of the TFCA’s 33 ports of entry.
