ESPA has been pivotal in our understanding and strengthening of human rights principles and developing standard operating procedures in conservation law enforcement, not only providing the immediate need in training to the rangers but also in being an amazing sparring-partner helping us find the best fit for FPF in the specific human rights context of DRC.

ESPA are well versed in protected area security and human rights audits and have a well-respected ranger training footprint in central and southern Africa. They are equally adept at delivering high-level investigations into the illegal wildlife trade across Africa and Asia.

ESPA handpicked the perfect team of instructors suited to our complicated needs and ensured continuity with the same team over the past couple of years. We are looking forward to when we can start working with them again to reduce poaching levels in South Luangwa.

ESPA have an experienced and effective group of instructors able to bring different skills including human rights experts, self-defense, police law enforcement as well as technical wildlife law enforcement knowledge.

I would without hesitation recommend ESPA to any organization wanting professional, thoughtful and intelligent support with wildlife law enforcement work.

As a result of ESPA’s training, we have managed to expand Black and White Rhino range, as well as containing the poaching levels, by successfully thwarting rhino poaching attempts when they have occurred.

We would wholeheartedly recommend working with ESPA.
