Welcome To Mweka Expeditions Home page!
The College of African Wildlife Management Mweka trains wildlife managers, who majority are going to manage protected areas after completion of their studies, In most cases the work of managing protected areas, requires someone to apply knowledge and skills acquired in both class and field. Wilderness skills acquired during plain, solo and Mountain climbing is good example of applied field craft. |
