What is the cultural significance of the Makuleke land?

This land is the ancestral home of the Makuleke people, who were forcibly removed during apartheid and successfully reclaimed it in 1998. Today, it is a remarkable example of land restitution and community-based conservation.

Our partnership with the Makuleke is central to everything we do, honouring heritage, creating opportunities, and caring for the land as co-stewards.
