​

• ​Create corridors while mitigating human elephant conflict, and launching capacity building programs for the tribal communities living near the forest fringes, in collaboration with Kerala Forest Department

​

• Implement strategic collaborations to rescue captive elephants and operate havens where they can be rehabilitated and cared for, while providing capacity building and training programs for elephant handlers

​

• Advocate legislative changes to tackle wildlife crime by organizing sensitization workshops for bureaucrats, law enforcement authorities, religious institutions, and decision makers​
