In the buffer zone of Tesso Nilo National Park in Sumatra, Indonesia, the women-led farming group Perbani has implemented a successful solution to reduce encounters between elephants and local communities. By planting dense fences made of citrus trees and elephant-friendly fruit trees, they have protected their crops and fostered peaceful coexistence. Perbani's efforts have not only transformed local dynamics but also empowered members through leadership classes and a savings-and-loans scheme. Recognized by Indonesia's forestry ministry, their work highlights the importance of involving women in conservation efforts.
