dc.description.abstractDespite the existence of structures within the Rural District Council (RDC) to take up Sengwe community grievances with Parks officials, relations have not improved. Most community members rely on cattle rearing and subsistence cropping for their livelihoods. This Policy Brief advocates Indabas (stakeholder meetings) between the communities and wildlife management authorities as a tool for improving relationships between National Parks officials and adjacent communities, using Gonarezhou National Park as a case study. It emerged from the Indabas that there is a need to recruit employees at Park level for ongoing engagement with bordering communities so as to better appreciate their constraints.en
