Reviving one of Africa’s great national parks

Listen on

Episode notes

In Mozambique’s brutal civil war, nearly all of the wildlife in Gorongosa National Park was destroyed by soldiers and poachers. We discover how an unusual rewilding project - with women’s empowerment at its heart – has helped nature to roar back to life.

Ros Russell presents a special episode as part of the Let Girls Learn series, where the Evening Standard is hearing stories from around the globe that shine a light on innovations and solutions that are helping girls to fulfil their right to healthy, productive futures.
