Conservation Lower Zambezi - Baines’ River Camp is a platinum member of CLZ. Over the years it has become clear that separate projects by individual safari operators are not nearly as effective as the combined effort of all. Led by a small, dedicated and professional team, CLZ has developed into a highly successful conservation initiative. Working closely together with Zambia’s Department of National Parks and Wildlife (previously ZAWA), CLZ is instrumental in the protection of the Lower Zambezi Valley as a whole, assisted by the monthly support of all safari operators in the area and generous funding from external donors. The organisation has three core functions:

– Wildlife protection
– Environmental Education
– Community Development
