CCF is a non-profit organisation founded in 1990 and now operating in six countries with partner organisations in five countries outside of Namibia. It has developed a set of integrated programmes that work together to save the cheetah and its ecosystem.
Saving the cheetah from extinction is CCF’s primary goal. It requires innovative conservation methods that address the well-being of both cheetah and human populations in Namibia and throughout the cheetah’s range.
CCF’s new Cheetah View Lodge expands its educational tourism department. The tourism revenue helps to support CCF’s many groundbreaking conservation research and community-based programmes, as well as its internationally renowned research and education centre.
CCF’s programmes have stabilized the wild cheetah population in Namibia, and is the reason that Otjiwarongo (the town nearest to CCF’s Centre) was designated the Cheetah Capital of the World.
