The pressures on the land, wildlife, and ecosystems of Africa are immense.. Without the proper management of these diverse systems, in a very short time, the toll will be catastrophic.

Through a strategic partnership created by Ned and Diana Twining, South African National Parks (SANParks), Wilderness Safaris (WS), and Peter Anderson, the Science Centres are intended to provide education, training and research so that Africans will be prepared to take a direct hand in creating positive outcomes for the land, wildlife and ecosystems in southern Africa.
The scope of this ambitious plan is presented on this web site.. We invite you to become involved.
