Elephants Without Borders (EWB)
Elephants Without Borders is a charitable organization dedicated
to conserving wildlife and natural resources; through innovative
research, education, and information sharing with all people, we
strive to encourage mankind to live in harmony with wildlife and
the natural world.
The African elephant is an ambassador for conservation,
providing motivation for raising awareness, stimulating action,
encouraging funding for conservation efforts, and generating opportunities
to reconsider the boundaries between conservation and rural development.
At Elephants Without Borders (EWB), we achieve this ambitious mission
by:
• Conducting research and conservation studies on the ecology
and behavior of African elephants
• Using state-of-the-art technology, such as satellite tracking
collars and aerial surveys, we monitor the seasonal movement patterns
of elephants; the size of their home ranges, identify wildlife corridors
and habitats for elephants
• Sharing our information and data with policy makers and
all people, this practice will support a long-term monitoring program
that will improve wildlife conservation management
• Promoting environmental education and awareness in schools
and rural communities that will allow an appreciation and respect
for the natural world
• Identifying and implementing sustainable measures that will
help reduce human-elephant conflict, which encourages a compatible
relationship between people and wildlife
EWB’s vision is to open borders for Africa’s wildlife
through research and education, and help ensure a prosperous and
compatible future between people and wildlife.
