Impact Report 2023 - 2024
This has been a fantastic year for Lion Landscapes. It has been over two years since we first had the idea of merging the original Lion Landscapes with the Ruaha Carnivore Project, and it is safe to say that we had no idea how much work it would actually entail! The whole team has dedicated countless hours to setting up new formal entities, both in-country and in the UK, as well as developing new structures for the whole organisation, to streamline our work and make it more effective. This year we also finished our strategic plan for the new Lion Landscapes, supported throughout by the amazing Maliasili. That was a great process for bringing everyone together to develop a shared vision for what we can achieve long-term. Overall, this has been a huge challenge for such a small team, and we could not have done it without the passion and dedication of every single team member, in the field and beyond.

This past year has been a period of remarkable progress and meaningful impact for Lion Landscapes as we continued to expand and strengthen our conservation programmes across Selous-Nyerere and Ruaha in Tanzania, and Laikipia in Kenya. These critical regions, which hold globally important populations of large carnivores, have seen significant advancements in both conservation efforts and community engagement. From innovative livestock protection measures in Laikipia to the expanding Community Camera Trapping programme in Ruaha, and the deployment of GPS collars in Selous-Nyerere, our work has been defined by tangible, on-the-ground results that directly contribute to coexistence between people and wildlife. Meanwhile, in Zambia we finished our key work with project partners on biodiversity monitoring, and are pleased to see that continue without as much involvement from us.
​
​We owe our successes not only to the generosity of our donors and partners but also to the unwavering dedication of the Lion Landscapes team, and to all the communities who work with us. Their passion and hard work are the driving forces behind our progress. Together, we are building a future where both people and wildlife can thrive, and we thank you for being an integral part of this journey.
