MANUAL COMPILED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 51 of the PROMOTION OF ACCESS TO INFORMATION ACT (PAIA) (Act 2 OF 2000)
Summary
The Southern African Wildlife College Trust, managed by WWF South Africa, has published this PAIA manual to facilitate public access to its records. The Trust's primary objective is to fund education and training in nature conservation management at the Southern African Wildlife College, specifically to subsidise costs for natural resource managers in SADC countries and provide student bursaries. The document outlines the request process, including the use of a prescribed application form, the role of the Information Officer (Mrs Jodie Johnson), and a detailed fee structure for requests and reproductions. It lists available records, such as annual financial statements, and categories of held records including administration, financial management, governance, and legal compliance documents.
