In December 2017, African Parks signed a 25-year co-management agreement with Mozambique’s National Administration of Conservation Areas (ANAC), aiming to restore, develop, and manage Bazaruto Archipelago National Park and revitalise it as one of the leading and most productive marine protected areas in East Africa. Pejul Pedro Sebastião Calenga is the current Director General of ANAC.

The Wyss Foundation is a private charitable organisation dedicated to supporting innovative, lasting solutions that improve lives, empower communities and strengthen connections to the land. The Foundation’s partnership with African Parks began in 2015 and has focused on supporting the long-term restoration and management of protected areas. Through a series of transformative commitments, the Wyss Foundation has helped expand the African Parks portfolio by providing start-up funding for new protected areas.

This enduring partnership reflects the Foundation’s commitment to strengthening conservation capacity and safeguarding critical landscapes across Africa.
