Today, Peace Parks TV is celebrating its 100th week of existence! We couldn’t have done this without you, our amazing audience. As a small token of our appreciation, we’re giving one lucky viewer the chance to win some awesome Peace Parks merchandise.
But before we get into that, let’s rewind to the beginning of this story!
Back To The Beginning
2020. The year that the world came to a grinding halt.
With industries shutting down, people who lost their employment in cities returned to their rural homes, further increasing the pressure on natural resources through increased deforestation and poaching. This meant that in the world of conservation, the work was only just beginning.
Some of the challenges that Peace Parks Foundation immediately faced were navigating issues such as how to continue to protect people and wildlife, how to continue to mobilise funding and most importantly, how we keep the world connected, inspired and educated about conservation in Africa amid lockdowns and travel restrictions.
One of the answers was through the effective use of impactful digital and media channels. And so, on 16 March 2021, Peace Parks TV was born.
An innovative new project in the world of conservation, Peace Parks TV immersed viewers into the heart of the foundation’s operations on the ground. It bridged the divide between the realities our colleagues faced when working in the field and those who might have felt disconnected from it all while at home. It gave donors, staff and the general public insight into the day-to-day challenges and triumphs that the conservation sector faced. It also helped those working on the ground to share their day-to-day lives with the world. A sense of connection at a time when it was needed most. Fast forward to today, and757 long-format videos have been published, with many more to come!
