Core Focus Area
Animal Welfare & Wildlife Law
Spreading awareness on wildlife protection laws, mitigating human-wildlife conflicts, and conserving forest ecosystems.
The Challenge
Understanding the Problem
Fringe villages near Kaziranga and forest reserves face frequent human-wildlife encounters, human-elephant conflicts, and lack awareness of legal protections and compensation.
Significance
Why This Work Matters
Harmonious coexistence between rural communities and wildlife requires legal knowledge, prompt conflict mitigation, and compassionate forest stewardship.
Our Grassroots Approach
We partner with legal institutions like the District Legal Services Authority (DLSA) to conduct community awareness and educate villagers on wildlife acts.
Core Activities & Interventions:
- Awareness Programme on Wildlife, Environmental, and Forest Laws at Morongi Block Auditorium in collaboration with DLSA Golaghat
- Educating fringe villagers on legal rights, reporting protocols, and compensation procedures in human-wildlife conflicts
- Promotion of community-based wildlife protection and anti-poaching vigilance
- Assistance to forest fringe habitations for peaceful elephant corridor transit
Target Outcomes & Lasting Impact
- Increased understanding of statutory wildlife protection and forest conservation laws
- Equipped community members with knowledge of legal remedies and relief during conflicts
- Strengthened partnership between legal authorities, forest departments, and village youth
