GKEPF creates partnerships for strategic interventions that facilitate the operational co-operation and collaboration requirements for a robust counter-poaching system throughout an area of approximately 400,000 hectares, covering the Western and Eastern flanks of the Greater Kruger Area into Mozambique.
Given this diversity and the sheer geographical scale, counter poaching efforts and prevention techniques within GKEPF are decentralized, with reserves focusing their effort in their geographic area of responsibility and influence, while GKEPF facilitates co-ordination.
For protection, GKEPF looks for innovate ways to increase the value of biodiversity in the area for future generations and a reduction in the demand for wildlife products.
