Southern African Wildlife College

The Southern African Wildlife College, situated 10 km west of the Orpen Gate of Kruger National Park, opened its doors in 1997. It is proudly supported by WWF South Africa and Peace Parks Foundation, who share the vision of building the capacity of staff in wildlife areas. The programmes presented at the college cover the full spectrum of skills needed to sustain and rehabilitate wildlife areas. The foundation has been sponsoring student bursaries since 1997 and in 2004 took over from WWF South Africa the responsibility of covering any operational shortfalls.
