OVERVIEW

Spend 4 weeks of your summer exploring some of the remote regions of Southeast Asia where elephants roam. In Cambodia, the lush Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary will be your base, where you will study the behavior, ecology, and welfare needs of the endangered Asian elephant. Next, you’ll spend two weeks in Mondulkiri and a final week in Phnom Penh.

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

→  Stay at the Elephant Valley Project in the forested Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary in Cambodia to observe semi-wild, rehabilitated Asian elephants as they forage, bathe, and interact with each other.

→  Engage with Kulen Elephant Forest to analyze elephant welfare practices and the transition from traditional tourism models to conservation-centered management.

→  Visit the vibrant city of Phnom Penh and the ancient temples of Angkor to explore Cambodia's history and culture.
