DISCOVER THE MAGIC OF ZAMBIA'S WILDLIFE IN THE HEART OF
LUSAKA NATIONAL PARK
In 2022, GRI opened a unique and immersive Wildlife Discovery Centre in Lusaka National Park. The centre not only provides free conservation education to over 2,000 children every year but is also the new home of our renowned Elephant Nursery, which has moved in its entirety from Lilayi. Fully accessible to all, the Wildlife Discovery Centres welcomes local and international visitors to immerse themselves in interactive displays and exhibits that highlight conservation issues and the efforts to resolve them. Through the centre, we aim to make a significant long-term contribution to the protection of wildlife and wild spaces by showcasing Zambia’s natural wealth, increasing environmental awareness and inspiring greater conservation stewardship.
