(Posted 07th June 2023)
A dedicated walk to generate support for the KAZA region and ideals will be taking place from the 19th to 23rd of June, covering #Zimbabwe #Zambia #Botswana and #Namibia, the four countries which have come together to make access to their border region national parks easier.
Walk For Love Africa (WFL) is a Non-Profit Organisation and a Pioneer in Promoting Intra-Africa Connectivity towards creating a Central Domestic African Market for Trade and Tourism.
Founded by Toni Ukachukwu, a Pan African who is passionate about building a self-reliant Africa through collaborations and partnerships to foster growth and unity amongst Africans. His passion led to developing a Pan African foundation tagged Walk for Love Africa which has grown to have Country Directors in 15 African Countries and counting.
WFL was founded in November 2021 and as part of its mission to promote Intra-African connectivity, it launched its flagship 2kilometer walk that took place across 14 African countries and in 20 cities. The walk began in Lagos, Nigeria. Cape Town concluded their walk with the release of our official theme song titled “Song of Love” written and performed by Vicky Sampson.
Programmes are organised at country, regional and continental levels aimed at advocating for a connected and borderless Africa. Our Platform, the WFL HUB is a market place for the travel and tourism ecosystem to connect all stakeholders, encourage market linkages, collaborations and partnerships in Africa.
WFL is poised to empower SMEs in the travel and tourism ecosystem with skill acquisition, mentorship, training and retraining programmes that provide incentives for sustainability.
We believe that an inter connected Africa will facilitate easy movement of people, promote travel, tourism and trade while pushing the agenda of Single African Air Transport Market (SAATM) and African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA). This will further promote the African Union Agenda 2063 to achieve a socio-economic development.
More information about KAZA:
As the global economy slowly recovers from the devastating setbacks caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, there is rising interest by tourists worldwide to seek out more fulfilling, authentic experiences in wide, open, natural spaces in decongested areas.
The KAZA WFLA is an event that will bring people together from different walks of life in Africa and diaspora to join us in WFLA flagship Walk on the historical Victoria Falls Bridge and the Kazungula Bridge as a core highlight and semblance of connectivity at the ‘quadripoint’ area that connects Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana.
The flagship walk is symbolic but it will be heralded by sets of activations and series of events in the host countries that make up the KAZA region.
The event promises to showcase adventure, rich cultural heritage and diversity with pre and post tours.
There will be opportunities for partnership and collaboration with economic benefit not just to the region but Africa as a whole.
