Community Conversations on Conservation
Our Mission
To empower young people living near 22 protected areas in Africa with cutting-edge digital learning in conservation, fostering the next generation of local leaders dedicated to safeguarding these vital ecosystems."
What we do
Abundelo is a non-profit initiative working closely with African Parks to enhance environmental education and conservation awareness among youth living near protected areas. In collaboration with SafetyCulture, a leader in online education, we are developing an interactive learning platform designed to engage and inspire young minds. Community facilitators will deliver this curriculum using Samsung Galaxy tablets, with plans to distribute them across all of African Parks’ protected spaces in the coming years. Our mission is to empower these youth to become the next generation of conservation leaders.
We’re partnering with African Parks to introduce digital learning on environmental education across all 22 of their parks in 12 countries, starting in October 2024. This initiative enhances understanding of conservation among local communities, focusing on the importance of conserving protected areas. Starting in Odzala, we’ll expand to other key parks across Africa.
