Vision
A South Africa where tourism benefits the bottom just as much as it benefits the top. Making opportunities available for people around Kruger and other Game reserves in South Africa so they build something of their own and empower the people around them. Being Nature connected will help to build schools based in a community centre that will give people the access to computer, workshops, and a education in
sales and social media to grow their business and educate others around the world. The idea of Being Nature Connected is a lifestyle that fosters respect to nature, living in harmony with nature like our Bushman ancestors, respecting it and learning from it. The world is rapidly growing and we need to mitigate the impact on wildlife, reduce roadkill and keep our nature wild and free of human intervention. Nature provides us with water, air and nutrients in the soil and a big part of the vison is education to the youth, they must learn how important protecting nature is, how much more valuable nature is alive and healthy, and how they can benefit from working with nature and people who care about it all
over the world.
