Did you know that the Kabompo River in North-Western Province is the deepest river in Zambia and the second deepest in Africa? The picturesque river is one of the major tributaries of the Zambezi, Zambia’s largest river. The Kabompo River flows through the West Lunga National Park. It is vital to the entire West Lunga ecosystem and surrounding areas, supporting animal and plant life and the communities that depend on it for a livelihood. You can learn more about the West Lunga ecosystem and the community efforts to restore it after years of devastation on our YouTube channel (check out our latest short documentary) or our website where we write about Kafunfula Community Camp: #KabompoRiver #Zambia #WestLungaNationalPark #KafunfunfulaCommunityCamp #Conservation #WildlifeConservation

John Phiri travelled around rural Zambia as a child because of his father’s work. He saw the challenges people faced in these areas, and he vowed to make a change. To that end, he studied forestry and worked in the non-profit sector in various rural areas across Zambia. His journey eventually led him to Musele Chiefdom in North-Western Province, where he worked with the West Lunga Conservation Project and was pivotal in establishing Kafunfula Community Camp. This unique establishment is the first community-run tourism camp in Zambia and the subject of our latest documentary. Check out the full documentary here:
