Who We Are
About Elephant Education Initiative
You can call us ELEI, Pronounced “Ellie”
Elephant Education Initiative is a 501c3, our mission is to mitigate human-elephant conflict through impactful education initiatives in Africa and Asia, leveraging sustainable tourism as a catalyst for positive change. We strive to empower local communities with sustainable practices through education to ensure a future for both humans and elephants.
Our Impact
Elephant Education Initiative provides full scholarships to Maasai youth pursuing higher education degrees in fields such as conservation, international tourism, environmental sciences, environmental law, or ranger training. Since 2019, we have awarded five full scholarships to both male and female Maasai students. As we expand to other countries, the reach of our scholarships to indigenous communities impacted by human-elephant conflict will continue to expand.
