Prince Harry steps down from African wildlife charity board
Last year the organisation African Parks admitted human rights abuses were committed by its rangers in Congo-Brazzaville.
Prince Harry has resigned from the board of African Parks, an African wildlife charity he served as president for six years. The charity recently admitted to human rights abuses committed by its rangers in Congo-Brazzaville, which prompted Harry's resignation. Despite his departure, Harry remains a supporter of African Parks' mission and will continue to contribute to conservation efforts in Africa.
African Parks manages around 20 national parks and protected areas in 12 countries and announced a governance refresh of its board of directors, thanking Harry for his contributions and global attention to biodiversity protection. Harry's resignation comes shortly after the Sussex family's relocation from California to the UK.
