We consider ourselves to be suitable developers for any website or related projects.

As detailed below, our involvement and running of the KZN Wildlife website has added enormous value to this multi-dimensional site.
Comprising 1 500 pages and more than 3 500 images, the KZN Wildlife website has many unique features that put it ahead of similar sites in the industry.

Within six weeks of launching the site it was securing 10% of the total accommodation bookings, making it, within a very short time, a self-sustaining asset for the organisation.

The KZN Wildlife website continues to generate 100 booking enquiries a day, resulting in an income of R450 000 per month.

In addition, ChakariNet has formed a strong working relationship with KZN Tourism and over the past year we have been involved in several projects with them.

One of these has been the development of a webcam facility for the Tembe Elephant Game Park, bringing viewers around the world daily live images of Tembe's elephants.

Another has been the running of a series of "Tourism & The Internet" workshops around the province, bringing about a stronger understanding of how the internet can be used to draw more tourists to the province through high quality websites.

The SADC-REEP website (Southern African Developing Countries - Regional Environmental Education Program), developed by ChakariNet, is a valuable resource that promotes the networking of staff and learners of the Southern African region.

In a joint project with the Wildlife and Environment Society of Southern Africa and Rhodes University (Dept Environmental Education), we have developed an Environmental Education CD that features interactive games for learners. The CD not only increases their understanding of birds, animals and flora, but also gives them a better understanding of environmental issues.
This CD has been so successful it has now been incorporated in a UNESCO Multimedia Professional Development Program, "Teaching and Learning for a Sustainable Future".
