Peace Parks

Running Time: 6 x 24 mins

In 1997, Dr Anton Rupert, HRH Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands and Nelson Mandela founded Peace Parks Foundation.

In this series we follow the trail of the Transfrontier Parks bordering on South Africa and extending into neighbouring countries. We explore why these conservation areas are important and what they protect.

Through the eyes of the local communities and the conservation bodies, we follow a trail along the major rivers, mountains and deserts to see what can be achieved if countries work together to conserve a shared heritage. A pictorial encyclopaedia and visual record of these important conservation areas is recorded for generations to come, and includes exciting 3D GIS maps which show the terrain as never before.
