A Partnership for Coexistence

Elephants face unprecedented threats from habitat loss and human-elephant conflict. But there’s hope. When communities are empowered as conservation partners, elephants and people can thrive together.

The Elephant Conservation and Research Fund mobilizes support for proven, community-led conservation programs across Africa and Asia. As a 100% volunteer-run 501(c)(3), we partner with local communities and organizations to create lasting change where it matters most.
