The Gouritz Cluster Biosphere Reserve organization is a citizens’ initiative dedicated to the conservation of the region’s biodiversity, tied to socioeconomic development for the wellbeing of its peoples.
A recently designated place of biodiversity significance by UNESCO, the Gouritz Cluster Biosphere Reserve is the only area in the world where three recognized biodiversity hotspots, the Fynbos, Succulent Karoo and Maputoland-Tongoland-Albany hotspots, converge. The organization seeks to create a balanced and effective approach to ecological sustainability and human development in this important region.
