Q1 2024: Human Wildlife Conflict meeting

The HWC meeting was centered on what CRBs, Organizations and DNPW are doing to mitigate the impact of HWC (Human Wildlife Conflict) in areas of operations.

Nsefu Wildlife's report was largely based on our beehive fences and also some lessons being delivered in school about conservation. We explained how we intend to up scale the bee fences to a stretch of 1.5km this as a way of reducing on the number of HWC cases.

What is critical to note is that these meetings are quarterly and any report has to be around all activities which have happened in the last three months.

We also talked about the boreholes we sunk so that natural water points should be left for the animals.

What was resolved:

  1. Each organization or stakeholders to start community sensitisation meetings.

  2. Each stakeholder to use power point kind of reporting.

  3. Put up a team under HWC for effective response towards HWC.

  4. Reports based on facts.

It was a good meeting and we learned a lot .

The next meeting takes place in June 2024.
