Human-Elephant Conflict (HEC) is a complex and pervasive problem that occurs throughout the range of the African elephant wherever elephants and people share the same habitat, often competing for the same resources. [adapted from the authors] This training course aims to train African wildlife managers in HEC mitigation. The training course consists of five modules each including an introductory presentation, trainer presentations and group discussions. Activities include measuring crop fields and damage areas, constructing mitigation measures, conducting practice interviews and how to use a range of Participatory Rural Appraisal ( PRA) techniques. IThe course is made up of two volumes: a trainer’s manual and a participant’s manual (see further information). The trainer’s manual provides guidance on teaching methods and content delivery. An outline is provided on the objectives, methodology, major references and training materials, resource requirements and the time required for each module covered in the course. <br /><br />
