Great Plains Conservation is conservation and tourism organization, which helps to manage several wildlife reserves in Kenya, Botswana,[1] and Zimbabwe. The group currently operates 18 safari camps,[2] which include luxury lodges and tented camps. Great Plains Conservation works together with local governments and community groups to promote low-density, environmentally conscious tourism, supplying economic incentives for the protection of wildlife.[3]

Great Plains Conservation was founded in 2006 by a group of conservationists and filmmakers. Its CEO is Dereck Joubert.[4]

Dereck and Beverly Joubert are National Geographic wildlife filmmakers, behind titles such as Last Lions and Eye of the Leopard. Dereck Joubert is also a National Geographic Explorer at large.
