The word “djani” is a Bushman word and refers to the reed instrument with which, according to legend, fire, light and heat have been brought to earth.

The djani (also called “zani”), is made from a reed, guinea-fowl feathers, a sinew and resin. Bushmen regard fire as the centre of the social and spiritual life, whilst the home fires are viewed as the heart of the family-life (Bushmen don’t live inside their huts, but around the camp-fires).

Similar to the foregoing Bushman legend, it is the vision of DJANI Wildlife Projects that through our work and conservation educational efforts and creations, light and warmth will also be brought to thousands of living creatures and that it will deliver a meaningful contribution to once again join man and nature as a true “family”!
