Conservation on Tap

Don't forget! Our next event is happening tomorrow at Bull and Bush Maun with Okavango Brewing Company 🐘🍻🌱

Join us for the next Conservation on Tap evening on 23 June 2026: Conservation Agriculture in the Okavango.

This informative session brings together experts exploring how sustainable farming and livestock practices can support both people and ecosystems.

Panelists:
🐂 Prof. Richard Fynn (Okavango Research Institute) – Regenerative, range-fed livestock and poultry systems
🥩 Catja Orford (CLAWS) – Wildlife-friendly beef markets and strategic grazing practices
🌿 Ruth Mochotlhi (Independent Consultant, Ecoexist collaborator) – Supporting local cooperatives in understanding conservation agriculture

Expect a dynamic discussion on building resilient farming practices, improving livelihoods, and promoting coexistence with wildlife 🙌

Come learn, connect, and be part of the conversation shaping a sustainable future.

The future of conservation is not only shaped in the wild. It is also shaped by the way we farm, produce food, manage land, and support rural livelihoods.

This month, Conservation on Tap turns its attention to Conservation Agriculture; a growing movement that recognises healthy landscapes and productive agriculture as partners, not opposites.

Join Ruth Mochotlhi, Richard Fynn, and Catja Orford for an engaging discussion on the opportunities, challenges, and practical realities of farming in ways that benefit both people and nature.

Pull up a chair, grab a cold Okavango beer, and be part of the conversation.
