🐾 Protecting Africa’s Big Predators in Kafue National Park

The Wilderness Trust is supporting the Zambian Carnivore Programme (ZCP) in safeguarding lions, wild dogs, cheetahs and hyenas in Zambia’s Greater Kafue Ecosystem.

With funding for collars, patrols and field teams, ZCP continues essential work, including snare removals, monitoring key prides and packs, and reducing human–lion conflict. Their long-term research shows a clear impact: lion populations grow where active protection exists.

One success story is Queen, a de-snared lioness whose lineage has produced 65+ cubs, helping stabilise the Shumba Pride.

🌳 South Africa’s flagship restoration festival returns for its 15th year!

As the urgency of the climate and biodiversity crises grows, thousands will gather in the Overberg next April to put their hands in the soil and help restore one of Africa’s most threatened ecosystems.

From 3–6 April 2026, the 15th annual Reforest Fest will transform Bodhi Khaya Nature Retreat into a hub of restoration, creativity, and celebration. Hosted by the Greenpop Foundation, this one-of-a-kind festival merges the energy of a music festival with the impact of large-scale environmental action.

🌱 The mission? Plant 5 000 indigenous trees in a single weekend, boosting biodiversity, water security, and climate resilience in the Western Cape.

Over the past 15 years, Reforest Fest has mobilised thousands of volunteers, planting 162 645+ trees across Africa’s southernmost forests. The 2026 event marks the fifth year of restoring the Uilenkraal Valley, bringing it closer to its thriving natural state.

🎶 Expect live music and DJs, poetry and performance, eco-living workshops, and panels with leading environmental speakers, all woven into a carbon-negative celebration of community and nature.

Don’t miss this milestone year of restoration and connection.

Everard Read Johannesburg presents: Andrzej Urbanski – Continuum

A new chapter unfolds in the work of Polish-born, Cape Town-based artist Andrzej Urbanski, whose latest exhibition, Continuum, opens at Everard Read Gallery Johannesburg until 12 December 2025.

Known for his angular, high-frequency abstractions, Urbanski introduces a striking evolution in this series, one marked by softness, reflection, and emotional depth.

Becoming a father has inspired him to explore the duality of masculinity, strength and gentleness, expressed through curved forms, muted palettes, and his trademark precision. His paintings and sculptures embody the tension between technical mastery and human tenderness, creating works that are as meditative as they are meticulously made.

Experience Continuum at Everard Read Johannesburg, an exhibition that challenges, balances, and ultimately moves.
