Meet the elephants of Cambodia’s Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary. Spend your summer alongside endangered Asian elephants while studying their ecology and behavior in a semi-captive rehabilitation environment. Examine human-wildlife conflict and conservation approaches and discuss elephant welfare and management practices. This program includes two weeks at the SFS Center in Siem Reap, with trips to the vibrant capital city of Phnom Penh and the ancient temples of Angkor to learn about the history and culture of Cambodia.

SFS students live and study at the Center for Conservation and Development Studies, our most urban center, which lies on the outskirts of Siem Reap, near the famed temples of Angkor. The center is a breezy, modern campus nestled in a quiet neighborhood, just minutes from the bustling downtown, where you will find restaurants, shops, and markets with unique Cambodian flair.
