About Imvelo Safari Lodges
Imvelo Safari Lodges has been at the forefront of community conservation in Zimbabwe since 1996. By building some of their camps and safari lodges on communal land bordering Hwange National Park, their ultimate goal is to create a symbiotic relationship between local communities, responsible tourism, and conservation. This in turn promotes conservation of the local wildlife and natural resources, and encourages sustainability for these village communities while at the same time adding significantly to the experience for the responsible safari enthusiast.
Imvelo is heavily involved in a range of wildlife conservation and community programs on a daily basis. Funded through lodge revenue and the Imvelo Foundation, projects include building and improving local schools, providing wells for clean water, and providing medical care & facilities. Wildlife conservation projects range from promoting wildlife buffers, educating local communities, and maintaining pumps throughout the park to provide water to wildlife during the dry season. These programs allow the local communities to benefit from the tourism industry thereby creating an incentive to promote conservation.
