Conserv Earth have sponsored two people on a basic field ranger course (armed) at the Southern African Wildlife College. The 6 week course was done in August 2022. We have then sponsored the same two students to do the next phase of training in September 2023 which they have just completed. Kurisani and Ntiyiso have since qualified and we will look to assist I pacing them in the work place. We have donated R95 000 to this and we will continue to look how we can assist and grow with the sponsored students.
