The Zambezi Society is the ONLY
conservation group devoted solely to
looking after the Zambezi, the finest and
wildest river in Africa.

The Zambezi is one of the finest and least spoilt rivers in the world.
Its basin has many important ecosystems and habitats: wetlands;
riverine woodlands; montane forests; dry forests; savannahs;
and aquatic ecosystems.

Its wide diversity of species includes black rhinoceros: elephant; cheetah;
lion; leopard; crocodile; lechwe; over 600 bird species; and a great diversity
of trees and plants.

The basin has some of Africa's finest National Parks, and many
valuable species, ecosystems and wilderness areas still survive outside
these parks as well. Threats include unplanned human settlement, hydroelectric
projects, minerals exploitation and ill-advised tourism development.
But the biggest threat is lack of knowledge.

The Zambezi Society aims to save Zambezi Basin Ecosystems and Wildernesses through good conservation practices based on sound technical information.
