Next Steps & SummarySAVE Botswana: the next steps• Step 1: SAVEWCB will select key areas to establish Youth Centers to allow the maximum number of children toattend its programs. These sites have already been identified and are located in the; Ghanzi, Gudigwa, Khuke,Kumanga, Kwaii, Matimo, Motopi, and Rakops districts.• Step 2: To generate interest and aid for the program we will meet with key members of the community suchas, the Kgosi (Village Chief), youth groups, school clubs, local volunteers and other organizations. By doing so,we gain support of the entire village and create partnerships with locals who are interested in the project’ssuccess.• Step 3: Working with local youth groups and school clubs we will host informative talks and provide materialsregarding nature and wildlife conservation. This will give kids a chance to learn about the environment fromresearchers, conservationists, safari operators and other field experts.• Step 4: The next step will be to establish youth centers in each district by finding sufficient space or pullingtogether the necessary funding to build them from the ground up. This will require site development andworking with our local partners and organizations to determine where the best locations are. Each center willserve as a safe area where all children can visit at any time and will never be denied assistance.11.04.2012 SAVE - Education & Wildlife Conservation Fund 35
