Can I come to the Center as a volunteer?

The Volunteering programme at ECC has been put on hold during Covid and will be re-activated in the course of 2024. Check our ‘BOOK YOUR STAY’ page for updates.

The core volunteer programme is generally 7 days/6 night’s duration with the opportunity to extend your stay. You will start by following our 3 days ‘Exploration’ programme. Then you will be asked to assist us in the Center’s development by participating in projects on site that are happening at the time. By experiencing this package, you will help the Elephant Conservation Center to develop. Our programme is all-inclusive and participants are accompanied or guided by our team members.

You will feel like part of the Elephant Conservation Center team and get to know our staff better.
Your activities may include things like:

• Development of the socialization area (cleaning, cut grasses around the electric fence, protect the trees etc.)
• Bamboo plantation and handicraft workshop
• Photography and artwork
• Observing and recording of elephant behaviour
