In this new
era of
“green-washing”
where some
take
extraordinary
steps to be
seen to
be doing the
right thing,
a lesser
number are
actually
doing the
right thing.
The Cumings
Family and
Chiawa Camp
have been
doing their
best for the
wildlife and
people of
the Lower
Zambezi
since Chiawa
Camp was
established
in 1989,
bringing
conservation,
tourism and
an economy -
and a future
with hope -
to wildlife
that was
under siege
to poachers
and to
people that
had few
options.
These pages,
now, attempt
to show this
where at Chiawa Camp
“conservation”
is not just
a word but a
way of life.

"The Cumings
family is to
Lower
Zambezi what
the Carrs
are to Luangwa:
bush
dynasties
whose
passion for
their environment
has extended
far beyond
their own
livelihoods
into
conservation
and community
outreach."
The Sunday
Telegraph
October 2004
"I don't
think
there's
anything
exceptional
or noble in
being
philanthropic. It's
the other
attitude
that
confuses
me."
Paul Newman
1925-2008
