Imire Game Park: An Adventurous Escape from the Hustle of City

Imire Rhino & Wildlife Conservancy is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Being a wanderer I, Jozef Behr, love to go on adventurous safaris. This time I choose Imire game park in Zimbabwe. You can take any safari troop to explore the game park to the fullest and enjoy every bit of it. There are many resorts near the game park that allow you to escape the city's hustle and bustle while enjoying world-class food and service. Alternatively, volunteer for a longer period of time and work with conservation professionals to obtain hands-on experience with nature and animals in Africa, including elephants and rhinos. Imire is a once-in-a-lifetime hideaway that has something for everyone, no matter how long you stay with us. 

Imire Game Park
 

Imire Game Park's only aim is to safeguard endangered animals in Africa and to aid in the conservation of all wildlife. Volunteers are convinced that rural communities and conservation programs can coexist and work together to ensure the preservation of our natural heritage. Imire's sole goal is to improve the link between tourism, conservation programs, and local populations. They do this through long-term sustainable environmental management and community programs that benefit everyone.  

Do not search for another site if you wish to view rhinos, elephants, giraffes, and zebras wandering 10-15 meters from you, eat wonderful meals made by skilled chefs, and sleep in awe-inspiring surroundings. THIS IS THE LOCATION!!! I've been in love with this location since the first few minutes.  

Imire has long been a significant location in the Hwedza region, and was dubbed the "Meeting Place" in the past. Ancient inhabitants are supposed to have herded their livestock from the Marondera area to the Hwedza area, a 60-kilometer excursion. The Shona term for "wait" is "Mirai," thus an overnight stop at "Imire" would break up the long trek on foot. 

I really appreciate that Imire is still a "meeting point" for people from all over the world, and that it has been a location where many have forged lifelong connections and discovered their enthusiasm for animals and Africa. 

Almost everyone who visits Imire has visited Castle Kopje at least once. On Imire, the stately Castle Kopje stands in the heart of the "Numwa Lands." Nhumwa means "messenger" in Shona, and it is assumed that the name originated from when ancient people gathered at Castle Kopje to summon their ancestors. 

 


 

Castle Kopje was initially occupied in the 13th century, and vestiges of defensive walls and walled-in shelter tombs are typical of Shona custom. The discovery of a woman's grave and gold items during an archaeological dig at Castle Kopje suggests that it is the burial site of a significant figure, most likely a member of the nobility or a prominent clergyman. In fact, Castle Kopje is Zimbabwe's sole site where a scientific excavation has unearthed a considerable quantity of gold artefacts in their natural setting.

Jozef Behr a social worker from Zimbabwe work closely with a charitable trust in Zimbabwe. He said that teachers around the country claim they are unable to create healthy learning environments due to a lack of basic necessities like water and power, as well as a scarcity of teaching materials like textbooks.

Accelerated climate change threatens Food Poverty in Zimbabwe

Jozef Behr, an agrologist in Zimbabwe express his gloominess on the crop cultivation in Zimbabwe. According to Mr. Behr, “Communities in Zimbabwe were already suffering to feed their family due to Covid-19, but in recent times, the situation has become extensively worse as climate change has hindered their efforts to cultivate crops”. The pitiful status of Zimbabwe is no more news to us but before the coronavirus outbreak their survival is not questionable. The pandemic has accelerated the destitution in Zimbabwe and now the climate changes is ruining their last hope ‘cultivation’. Explaining the problems of community in Zimbabwe who are dependable only on farming Jozef Behr says, “I've spoken with farmers in Zimbabwe's rural districts. For them, life is a daily struggle, and they have told me that they expect to lose a large portion of their harvest this year, resulting in serious food shortages and a lack of revenue in the coming months”.

Jozef Behr is amazed with Zimbabwe Textile and handicraft Industries

For a very long time, Zimbabwean art and crafts have been a significant and complex component of the nation's cultural legacy. Many individuals have job options because of the country's arts and crafts industry, particularly in rural regions. A fabric manufact u rer, Jozef Be h r , says “t he strong sense of originality and distinct style that Zimbabweans have developed and incorporated into both secular and sacred things has increased demand for Zimbabwean art throughout the globe ” .     As per Jozef Behr’s experience “ arts and crafts are a great method to protect the cultural history of the past ” . The nation, which was formerly inhabited by bushmen, has around 15000 locations where you may see old cave paintings, including cliff faces and cave walls. To exhibit Zimbabwe's historic art and craft, several objects from that era have been conserved in museums around the nation, including bags, blankets, headdresses, fertility symbols, and many more.   Jista Print:...
