Governance
The Conservancy observes due diligence on its policies. The community is actively engaged in a participatory approach to seeking consent, agreeing on priorities, being sensitized, and getting informed of necessary updates. This is mainly conducted at zonal/village levels or the AGM.
AGM is held every year with pre-AGMs held 2 weeks before in every zone to orient and distribute reports to members. Board members serve for 3 yrs term and can extend for a second and final term if they are lucky to be re-elected from their settlement zone.
