The book examines the creation of a trinational transboundary conservation project in Mozambique, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. It narrates local residents’ struggles to participate in the new park due to misinformation, violence, and forced displacement, problematizing participation in conservation at both local and international levels.
Established in 2003, the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park encompasses land in Mozambique, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. Prioritizing wildlife over people, it paved the way for human rights abuses by park rangers, increased human–wildlife conflict, and the forced resettlement of up to 6,000 Mozambicans. Pushing wildlife conservation without consideration for its deeply problematic local consequences is at the heart of The Challenges of Transfrontier Conservation in Southern Africa: The Park Came After Us.
