4. AWARE Germany e.V.
In addition to protecting wildlife, AWARE Germany e.V. works to improve rangers’ equipment and the infrastructure of national parks, and supports environmental education and domestic animal care, such as rabies vaccination campaigns.

5. GESUNDES AFRIKA e.V.
Improving healthcare in Zimbabwe is a key focus of the organisation, because health is an important way out of poverty. Healthcare in rural regions, training medical staff and disease prevention are the main areas of GESUNDES AFRIKA’s work.
Particular attention is paid to women and children. link
