There are high aspirations to foster growth in Namibia's Zambezi region viathe development of tourism. The Zambezi region is a core element of theKavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA), a mosaic of areas withvarying degrees of protection, which is designed to combine nature conservationand rural development. These conservation areas serve as a resource base forwildlife tourism, and growth corridor policy aims to integrate the region intotourism global production networks (GPNs) by means of infrastructuredevelopment. Despite the increasing popularity of growth corridors, little isknown about the effectiveness of this development strategy at local level. Themixed-methods approach reveals that the improvement of infrastructure has ledto increased tourism in the region.
