About
Spenta Foundation

A journey towards co-existence

The Avestan word Spenta means beneficent, or benefitting others. We at Spenta Foundation are working towards securing elephant habitats and restoring their green corridors.  All efforts are also being made towards  preserving and restoring forest bio diversity and mitigating the issue of human elephant conflicts. Our work also involves providing safe passage to elephants during conflict times, especially during the harvesting season. Our squad, along with Forest officials, are patrolling the likely areas in the forest of the Dooars of North Bengal for mitigating any potential risks. Protecting human lives, crops and property is given top priority.  To ensure peaceful existence, we train locals of forest border villages in protecting their crops and homes without harming elephants.  In order to restore the natural biodiversity on degraded lands we have planted native trees.
