Wildlife is one of Africa’s greatest resources and offers opportunities that
could help lift millions out of poverty.
Yet wild animals are disappearing due to poaching and habitat loss across the
continent. Namibia has taken a different road: our wildlife has more than
doubled since the 1980’s, thanks to local community action.



IRDNC HAS PLAYED A LEADING ROLE IN THIS AFRICAN SUCCESS STORY
SINCE THE VERY BEGINNING.

Revenue from conservation (2015)
Today we face new challenges, such as corruption and rapacious external
markets for ivory, rhino horn and lion ‘parts’. As a pioneer of the
community-conservation approach, IRDNC has never been more relevant.
IRDNC is helping rural communities benefit from managing and utilizing their
natural resources sustainably.
More than 43.5% of Namibia’s land is managed under conservation. Wildlife
populations are recovering, and communities are benefiting from conservation.
Conservation that works begins with people. These are their stories.
