MGUNDENI COMMUNITY’S JOURNEY OF CONSERVATION AND SUSTAINABLE RANGELAND MANAGEMENT
The Mgundeni community in northern KwaZulu-Natal became the first land reform community in South Africa to sign a voluntary biodiversity stewardship agreement in 2009. In partnership with WWF and Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife, the community has implemented sustainable livestock and vegetable projects, restored 124 ha of land, and adopted rotational grazing and fire management practices. These initiatives led to a significant increase in cattle herd size and a reduction in winter mortality rates, resulting in the community receiving the 2022 WWF Living Planet Award.
