The 'Brave Ones': Zimbabwe's women-only rangers fighting poaching
  • il y a 4 ans
Zimbabwean women are revolutionising the way the world looks at conservation, through a unique all-female anti-poaching unit. The Akashinga, or 'brave one' in Shona, started in 2017 and trains vulnerable women from local villages to become elite game rangers. They currently operate in five reserves totalling one million acres, but hope to secure 20 reserves with 1,000 rangers by 2025.
