English language training: Rwanda

PNV staff have expressed a need and desire to receive English language training. The majority of tourists who visit PNV are now English-speakers, and the PNV guides feel that without additional language training they are unable to effectively communicate their knowledge of park fauna and flora, as well as park rules and regulations, to the various tourists who visit the park.

IGCP initiated an informal training programme for interested guards and guides in 1996, led by bilingual PNV staff, and has just received confirmation of funding to continue this language training for field staff.


(With thanks to the Mountain Gorilla Survival Appeal).
