January 2012 Update
At the end of 2011, there were no less than FIVE sightings of African wild dogs on the Nyika! – they have not been seen for many years. Meanwhile, preparation for the indigenous tree nursery has begun, despite the onset of the rains on the Nyika. Brick-making for the new permanent housing for local NVT staff has also started. Silt excavated from Dam 1 is being used to make vegetable gardens for our permanent and casual workers and we continue to clear tourist road drains to prevent unnecessary water-fed erosion. Our volunteer manager, Patsy, continues to work with the local school at Chilinda, sharing new ideas with the teachers, and language lessons for our workers will begin again shortly.
The Nyika-Vwaza (UK) Trust Annual Event
In 2012 our annual event will be on 6th November at the Royal Geographical Society, London. More details will be published shortly.
