Volunteer At An Elephant Sanctuary In Africa

The thought of an African Elephant often conjures up a romantic image of a herd of the gentle giants strolling across a grassy Savannah. Here at the Great Projects, we can offer you the chance to experience this incredible sight up close whilst also aiding in the conservation efforts of the African Elephant.

These elephant volunteer projects are designed to not only assess the numbers of the 'Desert' elephants present in a region, but the end goal is to also contribute to achieving human-elephant co-existence by creating a win-win sustainable future for all. Without elephant conservation volunteers, the issues that these giants are facing will never go away and elephant populations will suffer as a result.

We can offer you the chance to learn more about these incredible animals in their natural environment in large, open reserves, which act as a sanctuary in which these elephants can live safely and happily. The work here differs as rather than working with the elephants directly, you will be working to quash the issues that these animals face every day, namely habitat degradation and conflict with locals, and the work you will be doing will be invaluable to help ensure a future for the elephants in the area.
