An Official Selection of “The American Conservation Film Festival 2015”, The Ecoexist Project: Pathways to Coexistence documents the work of the Ecoexist Project, including ABS Co-director, Dr. Amanda Stronza, to reduce conflict and foster coexistance between people and elephants in Northern Botswana.
“The film is a production of the Ecoexist Project, a collaborative effort of farmers, scientists,
village leaders, policy makers, and business people, working together to find solutions to
human-elephant conflict.
The story is set in the Eastern Okavango Panhandle, where 15,000 people share space and
resources with 15,000 elephants. The 18-minute feature includes voices and experiences of
people who live every day with elephants and know first-hand the challenges of competing
for space, food, and land with the world’s largest population of free-roaming elephants.“
