Upemba National Park in D.R. Congo is the largest in Katanga Province, home to a variety of wildlife, including the big four (lions, leopards, elephants, and buffalo) and unique species like Katanga impalas, cheetahs, and zebras. Despite its biodiversity, the park faces threats like poaching, illegal settlements, and mining, lacking the resources to effectively combat these issues. Dedicated park rangers have successfully protected elephants from poachers, ensuring the preservation of these species in Katanga.
In October 2022, the Hideaway Hotel team announced the arrival of a partnership with Sovereign Nature Initiative in aid of the Forgotten Parks Foundation consisting of a complete line of clothing and accessories themed around the park's different ecoregions. As part of this partnership, a documentary video is being broadcast live and a new public area is available.
Public rooms
Two public rooms have been set up for the Sovereign Nature Initiative partnership: Upemba National Park and Live Event.
Upemba National Park
The Upemba National Park is the main public venue in the partnership. It is accompanied by a brand new boutique, 'Sovereign Nature Initiative'.
Live Event
During this partnership, a live activity with a video presentation of the actions carried out in the park was presented and you could win a pin.
