SAVE THE DATE: Thicket 3-5 June Forum 2025

At Addo Elephant National Park (Main Camp)

The Thicket Forum was formed in 2004 by a group of people affectionately known as "Thicketeers"—it is an affiliation of researchers, conservation managers, landowners, rural communities and other interested parties with a shared interest in Subtropical Thicket and its biodiversity. Thicket is one of South Africa’s major biomes, with an exceptional number of unique plant species. However, > 70% of Thicket has been transformed or removed, so many of these unique plant species and their valued uses are under threat. The Thicket Forum meets annually to discuss research results and the sustainable management of Thicket, with the aim of conserving our natural heritage for future South Africans.
