Facilitating the development of the Nyika Trans Frontier Conservation Area
Wilderness Safaris believes that in protecting the pristine wilderness areas of southern Africa, and including the local communities in this process, we will make a difference to Africa and ultimately the world. Our greatest delight is to share these wild places with our guests in a responsible manner. We look forward to partnering with the Nyika-Vwaza Trust and helping the wildlife of the Nyika National Park.

The Society was established in 1946 (then known as The Nyasaland Society) with membership open to all. The aims of the Society are to:
- Promote interest in literary, historical and scientific matters
- Discover and record facts and information about Malawi which might otherwise be lost
- Acquire books on Africa generally but especially books relating to Malawi, to serve as a reference library to be maintained for the use of members and visitors

The Society organises regular talks on a wide range of topics and publishes an excellent journal twice yearly. It also has an excellent library and archive located at Mandala House, Mandala, Blantyre. Open to both the public and Society members, the library offers a unique collection of books, documents and photographs of interest to browsers and researchers alike.
