Community
The lodge has active community programmes supporting children in neighbouring villages, including the donation of computing equipment to schools and hosting orphans from the region for an annual environmental awareness day.
Using funds raised at a dinner to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Botswana's independence and working closely with social workers in the Bobirwa district, Tuli Safari Lodge sponsored the building of a fully-furnished house for a family of 8 orphaned children.

Conservation
The lodge takes a serious and conscientious approach to conservation. They have a resident conservationist and an on-site conservation centre from which research, monitoring and species/ecosystem conservation projects are organised. Game population assessments, investigations of animal behaviour patterns and soil/habitat conservation projects form the core of this effort.
Tuli Safari Lodge is a member of Birdlife Botswana and Birdlife South Africa and supports these organisations by recording and submitting data about threatened birds.
They work closely with the local wildlife department on snare-clearing and anti-poaching patrols.
The lodge has policies in place to ensure sustainable use of natural resources, including limiting wood collection, minimising off-road driving, recycling waste and reducing the use of electricity.

Training
Tuli Lodge is registered with the Botswana Training Authority (BOTA) as a conservation & hospitality training centre. In association with organisations such as Okavango Guiding School, they provide training for guides, rangers and hospitality staff.
