dc.descriptionThis document summarizes Southern Africa projects implemented under the African Elephant Action Plan, organized by country and year, and focused on reducing human–elephant conflict and strengthening elephant conservation enforcement. It describes initiatives in Angola and Zambia to mitigate conflict through community warning systems, vulnerability assessments, and pushback techniques, and in Botswana to analyze movements of elephants roaming outside expected ranges using modern monitoring tools. Multiple Malawi projects emphasize law enforcement training, anti-poaching capacity, ivory-trafficking prevention, and fence extensions paired with community income-generating activities to improve coexistence. Additional entries cover Mozambique’s ivory stockpile management, Namibia’s aerial elephant survey, South Africa’s snaring mitigation in Kruger National Park, and Zimbabwe’s law enforcement, SMART monitoring training, and corridor-focused habitat-use research.en
