“We live in a very dynamic world. We can't be doing the same things we have done for years in the name of staying true to the mission. You know, you move and adapt and change as things present themselves.” Thandiwe Mweetwa, Project Manager, Zambian Carnivore Programme.
It has been a long time, but the podcast is finally back and there are a lot of conversations to share from the last 5 months of remote travel through Zambia. Thank you for your constant support, especially to our Patreon supporters who make this podcast possible.
This week’s conversation is with Thandiwe Mweeta. Thandiwe joined us on the Walk Luangwa expedition on day 12 on behalf of the Zambian Carnivore Programme which was one of the direct beneficiaries for the proceeds that are being raised from the walk.
"Thandiwe is the Project Manager for the Luangwa work and also manages the organisation’s Conservation Education Program. She grew up in Mfuwe and was a former conservation club member. She joined ZCP as an intern in 2009. Thandiwe holds a Master’s degree from the University of Arizona and her thesis focused on lion demographic response to conservation policies in the Luangwa Valley. As a supporter of community-based conservation, Thandiwe is dedicated to exploring effective ways of integrating local communities in wildlife conservation and increasing the representation of women in the field. Her future research interests include human-carnivore interaction in a changing landscape. In 2016, Thandiwe was named a National Geographic Emerging Explorer for her efforts to protect lions in Zambia." (https://bit.ly/3qbrRyw)
