Abstract

The focus of this research is on the harmonization of technology, socio-economic, and legal measures to achieve sustainable human-elephant coexistence. It explores the integration of advanced technologies such as software applications, GIS mapping, drones, and sensor networks with socio-economic initiatives and legal frameworks to mitigate human-elephant conflict. The paper discusses the importance of balancing conservation efforts with the needs of local communities and highlights the role of participatory approaches in decision-making processes. It also emphasizes the significance of adaptive management strategies that can evolve with changing environmental and socio-economic dynamics. Firstly, this research paper delves into the escalating human-elephant conflict in India amid significant strides in wildlife conservation, underscoring the pressing need for effective wildlife damage compensation mechanisms to uphold environmental justice as this research identifies nuisance species and outlines advanced technological management strategies to mitigate human-elephant conflicts. It provides an overview of the current state of wildlife damage compensation, emphasizing the characteristics of wildlife damage and the critical role of compensation in mitigating conflict. Through a comprehensive evaluation, it sheds light on the challenges and complexities faced by India’s wildlife damage compensation strategies, offering insights and recommendations for future improvements. Overall, the research presents a holistic approach to promoting harmonious coexistence between humans and elephants while ensuring long-term sustainability.
