Exploring stakeholder perceptions of wildlife tourism in the Mudumu North Complex, Zambezi region, Namibia
Wildlife tourism (WT) in communal conservancies presents a critical opportunity for sustainable rural development in Namibia, yet its success hinges on equitable benefit-sharing and addressing local challenges. This study explores stakeholder perceptions of WT in three conservancies within the Mudumu North Complex (MNC) in Namibia's Zambezi region. Using a mixed-methods approach, we integrated household surveys (n=356 stratified by conservancy) w…
Navigating through the storm
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted global production networks and challenged the resilience of regional economies to external shocks. The tourism sector was severely affected by the travel bans imposed, as were regions characterised by tourism development, such as Zambezi in northern Namibia. Nonetheless, with the support of the national government, conservancies, as local governance institutions, partly maintained the distribution of value from…
The Return of the Giants
Northern Botswana and adjacent areas, have the world's largest population of African elephant (Loxodonta africana). However, a 100 years ago elephants were rare following excessive hunting. Simultaneously, ungulate populations were severely reduced by decease. The ecological effects of the reduction in large herbivores must have been substantial, but are little known. Today, however, ecosystem changes following the increase in elephant numbers ca…
