Marlice van Vuuren, one of Namibia's most well known conservationist, together with her husband
Dr. Rudie van Vuuren and their pharmacist friend Chris Heunis started N/a’an ku sê
Lodge &
Wildlife Sanctuary in 2007. N/a’an ku sê is committed to playing a key role in
conservation and the protection of the Namibian wildlife, land and people.
Our vision is an Africa where humans and wildlife can live and thrive together
Our mission is to conserve the land, cultures and wildlife of Namibia and
rescue species threatened by an ever-shrinking habitat
The sanctuary accommodates mostly orphaned and injured
animals that cannot be released back into the wild. Several additional projects are also taking place
including our Carnivore Conservation Research
Project, our Bushman School and the
Lifeline Clinic at Epukiro.
Through each of our project, N/a’an ku sê provides an important source of employment and
accommodation to several Bushmen families. One of our key aims is to improve the lives of these
historic tribes people through education, healthcare and improved living conditions and we currently
employ over 20 Bushmen families.
By visiting our unique lodge, taking part in a
carnivore feeding tour or
volunteering at one of our projects, you can help
to make our vision a reality. All profits from our activities go directly to benefit our work with
wildlife conservation, our Lifeline Clinic in
Epukiro and the people from the Bushman community we employ.
We are solely reliant on generous donations from our
volunteers, guests and supporters to continue our vital work to protect the animals and people who
simply cannot survive alone. Find out how you can
get involved.
