The Khetha Program, a joint USAID and WWF SA initiative in South Africa and Mozambique aimed at reducing the impact of illegal wildlife trade in rhinos and elephants in the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Conservation Area (GLTFCA), built successful foundations in 2018.
Between September 2017 and October 2019, Khetha made significant progress in securing relationships with key institutional stakeholders in South Africa and Mozambique, including South African National Parks (SANParks), the South African Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA), the Mozambique Attorney General’s Office (PGR), the Mozambican National Administration for Conservation Areas (ANAC) and the Joint Management Board of the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Conservation Area (GLTFCA). These relationships have resulted in MoUs between Khetha and both SANParks and DEA, and endorsement by ANAC and PGR to work in the Mozambican landscape from district to national level.
