Through accumulating a growing body of quality output on the fauna, flora, the unique habitat and archaeology of the Waterberg we have been able to make informed conservation management decisions to better support our conservation vision. This information is freely available to interested parties so that, as we seek to add to our shared understanding of this rich and diverse landscape, they too can care for the land in the best long-term interests of the wildlife and people of the Waterberg.

Kaingo represents a unique research opportunity for researchers to add to the collective knowledge of the Waterberg. By adding to our knowledge, we realise more and more what we don’t know, but we are also able to provide reserve management with the necessary data needed to make well-informed decisions and design and implement more effective conservation policies.

Kaingo has been involved in numerous research projects in collaboration with various academics from local and international universities, often leading to scientific publications.

Kameeldoring Research Camp

Researchers and research teams at Kaingo are accommodated at the Kameeldoring Research Camp, a facility that can currently accommodate up to 12 people in 6 units. Set in a beautiful location on the banks of the Mokolo River under large Camelthorn trees, the camp lies in the centre of the reserve and is within easy distance to our main reserve offices, workshop and other logistical support facilities.
