The Wild Horizons Trust is a non-profit organisation promoting conservation awareness, together with education and empowerment of local indigenous communities, through sustainable use of indigenous resources.

Based at Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, the Trust is dedicated to protecting the area’s unique indigenous fauna and flora, in collaboration with appropriate Authorities, local communities and other stakeholders. Projects include but are not limited to, rehabilitation of injured or orphaned wildlife, anti poaching and wildlife veterinary assistance where required, assisting with provision of water to both wildlife as well as local communities, creation of HIV/AIDS awareness and self help employment initiatives. 

There are four areas in which our projects focus: Communities Outreach, Wildlife Research, Wildlife Orphanage, and Conservation Training.

The projects that fall within the Communities Outreach program are conservation orientated projects such as providing fuel efficient stoves.  These projects are designed to bring community awareness to the need for, and importance of conservation. Projects such as these are aimed at reducing poaching in the Victoria Falls area. A number of projects are focused on the general well-being of the community, aimed at making the population healthy enough to be self sustainable or get jobs that will allow them to support themselves and not use poaching as method for survival. 

Wildlife Research projects are designed for the Wild Horizons Trust to find sustainable ways to protect wildlife such as the elephants. These projects incorporate ways of releasing animals and finding solutions to the human wildlife conflicts that develop in the community.  

The Wildlife Orphanage programs are set up to protect, rescue and rehabilitate animals that are either endangered or have been injured through human interference.  Release of these animals is also an issue addressed and will bring additional projects to Wildlife Research over time.
 
Conservation training includes a variety of courses that the Wild Horizons Trust can use to teach groups or individuals topics varying from guiding to anti-poaching.  These courses can be provided to either individuals, internal employees or the private sector.   The overall aim of all the projects is to promote conservation through community awareness as well as starting at a very basic level of rescue and rehabilitation. 

The Wild Horizons Trust aims to make a difference. Every day.
