Research at the Heart of Conservation

Research is an integral part of Kaingo's conservation approach.

 

By building knowledge of the reserve's biodiversity, ecosystems, archaeology and changing landscape, research helps inform conservation management and contributes to a broader understanding of the Waterberg.

​

Kaingo provides researchers with access to a diverse natural and historical landscape, together with dedicated facilities and accommodation designed to support field-based research. Projects are undertaken in collaboration with universities, museums, conservation organisations and other research institutions in South Africa and internationally.
