Abstract:
This text notes that a number of products emanating from the ongoing work of the Human-Elephant Conflict Taskforce are available with the hope that people will use them and comment on the results. The plan is to establish a standardized approach with a feedback loop so the research results are comparable between vastly differing human-elephant conflict (HEC) sites in Africa. The product list thus far includes: a HEC bibliographic list; a recommended standardized data collection and analysis protocol for HEC situations; a training package for enumerators of elephant damage; and a synthesis of r

Reviews focus and work of the Human-Elephant Conflict Working Group since its inception in 1996. Initial identification and investigation of specific aspects of human-elephant conflict (HEC) problems focused on management related outputs led to 'the production in 2001 of a 'decision support system' for managing conflicts'. 'A network of AfESG collaborators' continues to contribute towards a growing understanding of the HEC phenomenon which manifests itself in complex social and spatial dynamics across many bio-geographical landscapes in Africa.

Abstract:
The high rate of deforestation and fragmentation of elephant habitat on Sumatra Island has triggered human-elephant conflict (HEC) in Sumatra Island, Indonesia. This conflict brings negative impacts on humans and elephants. Despite numerous efforts having been made to solve this problem, the HEC continues to occur in the remaining elephant enclave every year. The harmonious coexistence between humans and elephants could be improved through HEC mitigation programs. The aim of this paper was to review information on HEC in Sumatra Island, investigate the causes and implications of HEC, review ex

Abstract:
Human-wildlife conflict has direct and indirect consequences for human communities. Understanding how both types of conflict affect communities is crucial to developing comprehensive and sustainable mitigation strategies. We conducted an interview survey of 381 participants in two rural areas in Myanmar where communities were exposed to human-elephant conflict (HEC). In addition to documenting and quantifying the types of direct and indirect impacts experienced by participants, we evaluated how HEC influences people’s attitudes towards elephant conservation. We found that 99% of participants s

Abstract:
People’s perception of the conflict they are experiencing with wildlife is a major factor in determining the extent of human-elephant conflict (HEC) occurring and needs to be considered when devising HEC management strategies. To understand perceptions and attitudes, however, it is necessary to identify factors that influence them. This study used a combination of multivariate ordered probit and generalized linear models to probe the complexities of farmer perception and attitudes and reveal underlying influential factors that shape perceived conflict levels.

Introduction: Human-elephant conflict (HEC) presents a growing challenge as shrinking habitats and rising human populations increase the frequency of these interactions, threatening both livelihoods and elephant conservation. This review systematically examines and categorizes HEC mitigation strategies, focusing on early warning systems, crop protection, community-based conservation, and conservation corridors, to promote sustainable human-elephant coexistence. Theoretical guidance is provided by frameworks on biodiversity conservation and community participation, with a methodological approac

Abstract Human-elephant conflicts (HEC) have become a significant concern due to their implications for both biodiversity conservation and human livelihoods. It has become a serious issue in Asian countries, particularly in Vietnam. This paper explores the effective governance strategies and good practices to mitigate human-elephant conflict in Dong Nai province, Vietnam. Through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and secondary data analysis, this article aims to identify and evaluate the practices that have been employed to mitigate these conflicts.

Abstract:
Human–elephant conflict (HEC) is a severe and much-debated issue in Sri Lanka. An average of two hundred animals are intentionally killed, and seventy to eighty human casualties are counted each year. The Sri Lankan elephant (Elephas maximus maximus) is an endangered subspecies. The reported elephant mortality rates are high. On the other hand, human–elephant conflict also leads to hardship and trauma among rural populations. This research paper reviews causal explanations for HEC in Sri Lanka, tracing underlying narratives and connecting broader conservation theory and practical approaches. T

Human-elephant conflict (HEC) poses serious threats to humans and to elephants, and while HEC in Southeast Asia is increasing, mitigation effectiveness data are lacking. Previous assessments of available mitigation options have not compared relative benefits and impacts of each on a practical level to identify which factors should be considered by local agricultural communities and/or other stakeholders when choosing among mitigation options.

Abstract:
Human-elephant conflict (HEC) is complex and a serious elephant conservation concern across Africa and Asia where elephants are found. HEC occurs whenever people and elephants share common interests. For HEC to be ameliorated and elephant conservation to be successful locally and regionally, the distribution and implications of HEC should be understood. The purpose of this study was to determine the spatial distribution of HECs and characterize elephant herds in terms of herd size responsible for crop-raiding in Kasigau.

We consider a unique population of elephant (Loxodonta africana) dwelling in an area known as the northern highlands to the west of Etosha National Park. These highlands are a remote, arid, mountainous landscape where elephants co-exist with rural communities. There is minimal published research on this population of elephants. As part of our scoping for a research project on this population of elephants, we consulted with game guards from 10 conservancies in 2021 and 2022 on their knowledge of elephant populations, and carried out analysis of Event Book data on human-elephant conflict (HEC) i
