Umzi Wethu – Nature, Nurture, Future

April 14,2009 by Emily Loose

We’ve just uploaded this fantastic video about Umzi Wethu, a program we run in conjunction with The Wilderness Foundation (Africa) to address the urgent issue of youth orphaned or displaced by the HIV/AIDS epidemic in South Africa.  Umzi students are trained for professional careers in the conservation industry, and participate in a holistic program that includes wilderness experiences.
