Safari Habitat is a regional initiative dedicated to wildlife conservation and the protection of Indigenous communities across Africa. Spearheaded by KIF Africa and supported by its national chapters throughout the continent, Safari Habitat focuses on preserving Africa's unique biodiversity and safeguarding the cultural heritage and rights of Indigenous people whose lives are intricately linked with these natural environments.

The program’s conservation efforts encompass a wide range of activities, from protecting endangered species and restoring ecosystems to combating illegal poaching and deforestation. Safari Habitat works closely with local communities, recognizing the vital role Indigenous knowledge and practices play in sustainable environmental stewardship. By engaging Indigenous leaders and supporting traditional ways of life, the program aims to empower these communities as co-stewards of the land, ensuring that conservation efforts are rooted in respect for both nature and cultural heritage.

Safari Habitat also collaborates with governmental bodies, international organizations, and environmental NGOs to strengthen policy frameworks that protect wildlife and uphold the rights of Indigenous people. Through educational outreach, research, and advocacy, Safari Habitat raises awareness of the challenges facing Africa’s natural habitats and advocates for sustainable solutions that balance ecological preservation with the well-being and self-determination of local communities. The program envisions a future where Africa’s rich ecosystems thrive alongside empowered Indigenous populations, fostering a harmonious relationship between people and nature for generations to come.
