Investor Presentaiton
SOLUTIONS:
Encourage and facilitate PPP's, Park Management Boards consisting of meaningful private sector
representation, and concessions to reduce burden on Government, and Trusts/Boards in GMA's to
ensure meaningful involvement of all parties through performance based agreements applicable to
all parties. Use Botswana as a model to consider. Devolve DNPW into a regulator instead of a
manager. This will reduce costs to GRZ but increase revenues through an improved resource and
increased visitation by tourists. It will also attract increased investment from higher caliber
investors.
-
Encourage and facilitate game farming through revised legislation as recommended such as
legalizing & facilitating the sale of game meat - use Namibia as a successful model to consider and
which cites its success as giving power and ownership to the people not the State. This will provide
alternative employment in remote areas and a cheap, reliable source of protein for Zambia whilst
preserving the wildlife resource through reduced poaching and increased wildlife populations.
Encourage and facilitate fish farming to replace netting especially in areas where tourism and
consumptive fishing conflict. This will provide alternative employment and source of protein whilst
protecting the fish resource and improving the visitor experience for angling tourists.
Liberalise aviation and do all necessary so that additional airlines will operate in Zambia, domestic
and international including a non-stop service to UK/Europe. This will make travel to Zambia more
convenient and more affordable, attracting more tourists and investment in the sector.View entire presentation
