Zambia has the second largest proportion of land under protected status in Southern Africa with approximately 225,000 km2 designated as protected areas. This equates to approximately 30% of the total land cover and of this, approximately 8% as National Parks (NPs) and 22% as Game Management Areas (GMA). The remaining protected land consists of bird sanctuaries, game ranches, forest and botanical reserves, and national heritage sites (Mwanza 2006). The Kavango Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA TFCA), is potentially the world’s largest conservation area, spanning five southern African countries; Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe, centred around the Caprivi-Chobe-Victoria Falls area (KAZA 2015). Parks within Zambia that fall under KAZA are: Liuwa Plain, Kafue, Mosi-oa-Tunya and Sioma Ngwezi (Peace Parks Foundation 2013). GCF is dedicated to securing a future for all giraffe populations and (sub)species in the wild.

ZIWOYA has been approved for the School of Communication Studies and the Scripps College of Communication by Claudia L. Hale Professor of Communication Studies Scott Titsworth Interim Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT ZIWOYA, FLETCHER O. M., Ph.D. December 2012, Communication Studies Deliberation as an Epistemic Endeavor: UMunthu and Social Change in Malawi’s Political Ecology Director of Dissertation: Claudia Hale This dissertation examines the epistemic role of democratic processes in Malawi. In this study, I challenge the view that Malawi’s Local Government model of public participation is representative and open to all forms of knowledge production. Through a case study analysis of the political economy of knowledge production of selected District Councils in Malawi, I argue that the consultative approach adopted by the Councils is flawed. The Habermasian approach adopted by the Councils assumes that development processes should be free, fair, and accommodative of open forms of deliberation, consultation, and dissent. The Habermasian ideals stipulate that no single form of reasoning or knowledge dominates others. By advocating for “the power of the better argument” Habermas (1984, 1998a, 1998b, 2001) provided room for adversarial debate which is not encouraged in the Malawi local governance system.

    Luxury Zambia Safari Tours and Zambia Safaris

    ZAMBIA Luxury Zambia Safari Tours Zambia Safaris What makes our Luxury Zambia Safari Tours unforgettable? Zambia’s immense wilderness encompasses nineteen national parks teeming with abundant wildlife. The rich landscape varies between huge lakes, wide rivers, thundering waterfalls, vast wetlands, grassy plains, and lush forests. With some of the finest game sanctuaries in Africa, Zambia Safaris offer a wide range of Safaris in open vehicles, on foot, by boat or canoe, on horseback, or by micro light. Walking Safaris were pioneered in Zambia and enable intense close-up encounters with wildlife. Zambia has some of the best views of the magnificent Victoria Falls, a World Heritage Site and one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Zambia’s share of Lake Tanganyika forms part of the Great Rift Valley, edged by the Sumbu National Park, the harbor Town of Mpulungu, and the spectacular Kalambo Falls, the second highest Waterfall in Africa. Lake Kariba is conveniently situate only 120 miles south of Lusaka and features a magnificent setting combined with a relaxing and friendly atmosphere. A short distance downstream of Lake Kariba, the Zambezi Valley, fringed by rugged escarpment, forms a veritable wildlife menagerie. Lush floodplains, verdant woodlands, and permanent water attract elephant, buffalo, and antelope known to move in big herds. Additionally, the combination of the Zambezi River and diverse land habitats has resulted in a wide and prolific range of bird species. The breathtakingly scenic Lower Zambezi National Park guarantees the absolute experience of “The Real Africa”. The capital city of Lusaka sits at the heart of the country and the crossroads of Southern Africa.

Proposed Ndevu Gorge Power Project: An Overview of Biological and Conservation Impacts on the Luangwa River Valley. Watershed Institute, California State University Monterey Bay, Publication No. WI-2017-04 2 Executive Summary The proposed Ndevu Gorge Power Project has the potential to irreversibly alter the free-flowing Luangwa River in Eastern Zambia. We conducted an initial exploration of ecological, hydrologic and nature-based tourism impacts that a dam at Ndevu Gorge could potentially have on the surrounding landscapes of the Luangwa Valley.
