ELEPHANT CONSERVATION IN NAMIBIA

VOLUNTEER FOR ELEPHANTS
 
 
 


WELCOME TO ELEPHANT-HUMAN RELATIONS AID

Elephant-Human Relations Aid (EHRA) Namibia has helped build peaceful
relationships between free-roaming desert elephants and local communities in
Namibia, Africa since 2003. Conflict exists due to shared land, resources and an
ongoing drought in the region, which leaves communities and animals without much
food or water. Elephants, livestock and humans are sharing the same waterpoints,
which not only sparks conflict, but also results in human and elephant
fatalities.

EHRA’s mission is to implement practical solutions that help combat
elephant-human conflict, and thereby secure a future for Namibia’s desert
elephants. We do this through building protective walls around waterpoints,
educating locals on conflict mitigation tactics and continuous monitoring of the
different elephant herds. Please help us fund our conservation work so that we
can continue monitoring elephants and helping rural communities. Find out more
here.

EXPLORE OUR WORK

 


WATERPOINT PROTECTION

Our hands-on Elephant Wildlife Volunteer Project directly supports local
communities by protecting fragile water infrastructures from damage through the
construction of walls; which allow the elephants to drink water, but prevent
access to windmills, tanks or pumps. This project requires a two weeks’
commitment and volunteers experience real conservation in action.

TRACK, MONITOR AND ID

EHRA prides itself in playing a key role in collecting accurate data on
elephants, their respective herds and movement patterns. Funding is done through
our Elephant Wildlife Volunteer Project, where volunteers also learn to track
elephants. This information is paramount to effective conservation management in
Namibia to help combat elephant and human conflict.

EDUCATION AND TRAINING

Education is an important tool in securing the future of our free-roaming desert
elephants in Namibia. Our PEACE Project, an initiative by EHRA, is a
community-focused elephant education programme provided to schools, community
game guards, lodge employees, government officials and safari guides to help
people understand and live peacefully with elephants.

→ Learn more


COMMUNITY SUPPORT

EHRA has several community upliftment programmes which are supported by our
Family Wildlife Volunteer Project and School Partnerships. These provide help to
conservancies, community members and school learners to empower them with
knowledge and improved living infrastructure to keep themselves, families and
livestock safe during elephant visits.

WHAT WE’VE DONE SO FAR

 
 

EHRA volunteers have built over 220 waterpoint protection walls with the help of
over 3,500 volunteers.

EHRA monitors over 60 resident and visiting elephants across the Ugab and Huab
river regions.

EHRA supports the A.Gariseb and Okongue Primary Schools through its community
upliftment programmes.

Our PEACE Project, initiated by EHRA, has educated over 2,000 people on living
with elephants peacefully.

 

EHRA is committed to conducting ongoing research and data collection on
Namibia’s desert elephants.
