Directors for the CORB Fund

 

The Cubango-Okavango River Basin is one of the jewels of Africa, recognized globally as one of the world’s greatest natural wonders – with a unique inland delta teeming with wildlife and epitomized by its status as a Wetland of International Importance (Ramsar Site) and UNESCO’s 1,000th World Heritage Site. The countries of Angola, Botswana and Namibia jointly established the Cubango-Okavango River Basin Fund (CORB Fund), as a Company Limited by Guarantee in Botswana to sustain the integrity of this vast and important ecosystem together with the people who live within it. The CORB Fund is a fully independent hybrid fund that aims to enhance livelihoods, improve ecosystem resilience and provide equitable benefits to the riparian states of Angola, Botswana and Namibia, in their shared river basin. The Fund now seeks four highly motivated and experienced people to join the Board of Directors and help to protect the culture and nature of the Okavango and ensure the endurance of its people. The invitation for consideration to join the Board is now available on the OKACOM website and all individuals interested in becoming a part of this exciting and important new member of the conservation finance community can find the information for the Director positions at this web link:
