The Bhejane Trust is dedicated to assisting the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority in many aspects of the management and operations of three national parks of north-western Zimbabwe.
Led by 2020 Tusk Wildlife Ranger Award winner Amos Gwema, the Bhejane Trust’s TREES programme works to Teach, Reform, Engage, Educate and Support local communities in conservation. Issues of human-wildlife conflict are quickly attended to and relations between communities and rangers are enhanced through regular visits and establishing open lines of communication. Such measures will help reduce wildlife crime, while support of small income generating projects will have a long and lasting impactful effect within the communities.

How Tusk works with Our Project Partners
We provide critical funding to enable our project partners to grow and increase their impact on habitat and wildlife, while also enabling, nurturing and supporting collaboration between them, for greater synergy and impact.
We help to increase awareness and wider support for our partners’ efforts, while also sharing important conservation messages, from the vital and varied roles of wildlife rangers, to the benefits of community-driven conservation, both within Africa and internationally.
Bhejane Trust has been a Tusk Partner since 2020.
