About CSE

Curriculum Safari Earth (CSE), founded in 1992, is a non-profit educational organization dedicated to the integrated management of human communities with sustainable wildlife habitats. 

 Through our unique inter-disciplinary approach, CSE endeavors to highlight key issues of global habitat conservation and expansion of human communities through it's educational programs and travel symposia. Curriculum Safari Earth (CSE) acts as a forum in which students, educators, community leaders and activists can come together and learn about issues of global consequence, and to exchange ideas on their impact and resolution.

One of CSE’s primary missions is to provide direct support to grassroots environmental conservation education programs for rural and urban youth in southern Africa. These privately operated and funded education programs help children learn about the science of their environment as well as conservation and habitat preservation.

Over the past several years, CSE has worked with a number of local organizations, including the Zambezi Society, the Wildlife Society of Zimbabwe, Mukuvisi Woodland Nature Reserve and Environmental Centre, and the Rifa Environmental Conservation Education Camp.
