The Wilderness Foundation is working with South Africa National Parks to create a mosaic of protected areas anchored by the Mountain Zebra National Park and the Camdeboo complex, a key biodiversity area. The grantee will work with as many as 75 land owners to place as much as 30,000 hectares of land under formal stewardship.

Strategic Direction: 2 Expand conservation areas and improve land use in 19 key biodiversity areas through innovative approaches
