An excellent communication plan/network with different stakeholders was initiated across different levels. From the inception of the project, the community and other stakeholders were constantly capacitated on how the project is going. A relay of relevant vulture conservation and policy issues was achieved to the target stakeholders within the communities and KAZA TFCA.
Through strong relations established, the project implementers were flexible to engage with different stakeholders at different levels. This would include the arrangement of informal meetings and the use of local language to target different audiences. Social media, distribution of communication material and the power of face-to-face meetings enabled the implementer to reach grassroots levels.
Take advantage of social media platforms and share your story and journey with the whole world.
Face-to-face meetings are a powerful tool for effective communication and enable the project implementers to relay the relevant vulture conservation and policy issues to the target stakeholders within the KAZA TFCA.
