Five states sign the KAZA Transfrontier Conservation Area treaty
node
Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe signed the treaty establishing the Kavango–Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area, committing to joint management of a landscape linking national parks, game management areas, forest reserves and community land across five sovereign jurisdictions. KAZA is the institutional expression of the finding that dispersal between reserves, not conditions inside any one of them, determines large-mammal outcomes.
A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.

- KAZA was established by treaty between Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe in 2011, linking national parks, game management areas, forest reserves and community land across the Okavango and Zambezi basins; a coordinated dry-season aerial survey flown August-October 2022 estimated about 227,900 elephants in the TFCA, with Botswana holding about 131,909, described as broadly stable relative to the 2016 IUCN African Elephant Status Report.
