ABOUT THE WILDLIFE & ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION SOCIETY OF ZAMBIA
Protecting Nature is our responsibility. Founded in 1953, the Wildlife & Environmental Conservation Society of Zambia (WECZ) is a charitable, membership- based NGO dedicated to promoting environmental conservation issues to all levels of the community. We organize Zambia's only nation-wide environmental education programs, spearhead community-based conservation efforts in key ecosystems, and advocate for conservation policies. Our work is built around four focus areas
1.Forest & Wildlife Conservation - We protect and restore Zambia's forests through community-led reforestation, alternative livelihoods and policy advocacy.
2.Waste Management - Plastic pollution is threatening the water, safety and health of Zambians. We are engaging Zambian communities to turn the tide through education and creating alternatives.
3.Water & Climate Resilience - We train and support thousands of our youth to lead the response to growing threats of climate change in Zambia.
4.Policy Advocacy & Education - Since independence WECSZ has played a leading role in lobbying and consulting. the government to create sustainable environmental policies, ranging from the creation of National Parks to the Water Bill and national climate adaptation plans.
ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Pam Guhrs-Carr grew up in Zambian wild places, with her conservationist father Norman Carr imparting in her from an early age a deep understanding of the bush. Pam's long career as a painter and observer of the environment has led naturally to her closely studying the wilderness, including grasses, of the Luangwa Valley which she calls home. She has written a tree book and a book on birds of prey. As a renowned wildlife artist, her work sells locally and internationally. She lives in Mfuwe with her dog Zanzi, where she creates art and runs art workshops with children.
