KAVANGO ZAMBEZI

The Kavango Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area, which is a conservation reserve that straddles 5 African states, Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Angola and Namibia.

Story9 was tasked with developing a creative content campaign aimed at positioning Kavango Zambezi as a top tourism destination to global audiences.

The campaign included creation of a multi-partner consumer and trade microsite, video content and promotion supported by a fully integrated digital traffic acquisition strategy including digital display, organic and paid search marketing and paid social activity across key UK, European, US, African and Asian markets.

Enhancements to the Uncover Kavango Zambezi website also included a detailed image gallery and a section for the new Great Kavango Zambezi Birding Route.

The campaign is now in its 2nd year.

Telling the world about one amazing wild place that crosses five African countries.
