MAWS (Managing Animal Welfare and Sustainability) is a Botswana-based organisation dedicated to protecting the country’s rich wildlife by focusing on the health and welfare of domestic animals. By ensuring pets, livestock, and other domestic animals are well cared for, vaccinated, and properly managed, MAWS reduces the risk of disease transmission to wildlife and helps maintain balanced ecosystems. The organisation also emphasises community education, teaching local residents responsible animal husbandry practices that benefit both their animals and the surrounding environment. Through these efforts, MAWS plays a crucial role in safeguarding Botswana’s biodiversity while promoting harmonious coexistence between humans, domestic animals, and wildlife.
