This new competition celebrates the magnificent beauty of the Zambezi Valley and you’re invited to participate!

We are looking for bold, striking photographs taken in the Zambezi Valley that embody our theme for 2020 – “The Power and the Glory”. There are no restrictions on subject – wildlife, birdlife or landscapes.

Winning entries will be featured in Zambezi Elephant Fund’s 2020 calendar; plus, you will have your photograph published in Nzira magazine!

By participating, you will be helping the Zambezi Elephant Fund in its efforts to increase awareness of the Zambezi Valley to a global audience, and effectively strengthening Zambezi Elephant Fund’s support of the vital anti-poaching and conservation work that is being carried out by ZimParks and many on-the-ground implementers.

 You will also be sharing and introducing our audience to the Zambezi Valley, helping them discover the region’s wildlife and habitats.
