ENTC Background Info

Eswatini National Trust Commission

The Eswatini National Trust Commission (ENTC) is responsible for conservation of the Kingdom’s natural and cultural heritage as mandated by the National Trust Commission Act No. 9 of 1972; amended by the King’s Order in Council of 1973. The ENTC carries out its mandate through proclamation and management of national parks and reserves, national museums and monuments.

The ENTC is an independent statutory body and a government parastatal, operating at the present time under the umbrella of the Ministry of Tourism and Environment Affairs. The strategic and policy framework of the organization is facilitated by a Board of Commissioners appointed by the Minister in terms of the NTC Act and the Public Enterprise Control and Monitoring Act.

The objectives of the Eswatini National Trust Commission are to:

Preserve natural and cultural heritage
Continue to develop nature conservation in the country

It is important to ensure that all ENTC's activities have a minimum negative impact on the long term conservation of the natural and cultural heritage. The ENTC has a vital role to play in enhancing the quality of life in Eswatini, through conservation of its natural and cultural heritage, in the long term. The ENTC's responsibilities are on a national level and are not restricted to existing ENTC managed areas.
