Restoring the Ecological Heart of Africa

Upemba — A Park Returning to Life

For decades, Upemba National Park was a forgotten landscape — isolated by conflict, emptied of wildlife, and left without management. Today, a dedicated team of rangers, scientists and local communities is rebuilding it from the ground up.

This film documents the early stages of that recovery — the people behind it, the ecosystems at stake, and what it means to restore one of Africa's most important ecological landscapes.
