About Us
Protecting Elephants.
The Tsavo Conservancy is a long-term community conservation initiative dedicated to protecting the extraordinary landscapes surrounding Tsavo Park — the oldest proclaimed game reserve in Africa and the Africa’s great wilderness. Our vision is simple: Thriving Wildlife. Thriving Communities. Thriving Landscapes..
Rather than focusing solely on protecting wildlife within park boundaries, we believe the future of conservation lies in empowering the local communities who live alongside these remarkable landscapes.
By supporting sustainable livelihoods, responsible tourism, education and conservation enterprises, we are helping to create a future where communities become the custodians and greatest beneficiaries of Kenya's natural heritage.
The Conservancy acts as a collaborative platform uniting local community group ranches, the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS), Tsavo Trust, Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, safari operators, and impact investors.
We envision a future where Tsavo becomes Africa's leading example of community-led elephant conservation.
Support anti-poaching operations, aerial monitoring, and habitat protection that safeguard Africa's last Super Tuskers, over 14,000 elephants, and endangered black rhinos.
Create sustainable livelihoods through tourism, conservation employment, entrepreneurship, education and skills development within surrounding local communities.
Promote responsible travel experiences that celebrate the culture, wildlife and landscapes of Kenya while funding conservation directly.
Connect impact investors with opportunities that strengthen conservation while supporting inclusive economic growth and community enterprise development.
Across Africa, national parks cannot exist in isolation. The long-term survival of Africa's elephants and wildlife depends on protecting these wider landscapes while creating meaningful opportunities for local people.
The National Parks Campaign is an ambitious initiative to establish community-led conservation destinations around Africa's most iconic protected areas — starting with the birthplace of elephant conservation.
By creating self-sustaining micro-economies driven by tourism and green enterprise, we reduce reliance on philanthropy and build resilient local communities who see direct value in conservation.
Elephant populations grow, poaching drops dramatically as communities become conservation champions, and the Tsavo Ecosystem prospers as one of Africa's most important biodiversity hotspots.
Rewilding Africa (www.rewildingafrica.org) is the organisation behind the National Parks Campaign. Our mission is to develop innovative national park conservancy destinations that generate long-term environmental, social and economic value.
By bringing together governments, communities, NGOs, tourism operators and responsible investors, Rewilding Africa helps unlock sustainable funding for conservation while creating new opportunities for employment, enterprise and education.
"Rather than relying solely on donations, we believe conservation should become a self-sustaining economy that benefits everyone involved."
