A Rocha India

About us

Since 2004 A Rocha India has been working in and around Bannerghatta National Park outside Bangalore, a scrub forest where Asian Elephants live. The elephants live very close to neighbouring farmland and urban areas, which can cause human-elephant conflict. Based from the Kasserguppe Field Study Centre, the A Rocha team are finding effective solutions through careful science and environmental education for the long term sustainability of wildlife, habitats and the people who live there.
Due to COVID-19, the family that owns the centre, needs to sell some of the land. They intend to complete the sale by the end of 2022. For our vital work to continue, we need to purchase the land where our office and most of our activities are based.
