Thanda Foundation Trust
The Thanda Foundation Trust was established
to address the socio-economic, educational, and
developmental needs of the three tribal communi-
ties adjacent to Thanda Safari in the Umkhanyekude
district. They actively work on addressing unemploy-
ment and engage in various conservation initiatives.
In 2023, in partnership with Thanda Safari,
the Trust took a ground-breaking step in wildlife
conservation by introducing AI-enabled collars to
protect its endangered rhino populations. The newly
developed AI transmitters use algorithms to observe,
learn, and analyse behaviour patterns specific to
each rhino. By recognizing abnormal activities such
as potential poaching attempts, territory disputes,
illness, and more, an alert is sent directly to the wild-
life monitor’s phone with precise GPS coordinates,
enabling swift response. This project truly shows
their commitment to conservation and the preserva-
tion of wildlife. thandafoundation.com
Utfallsfonden
Utfallsfonden finances organisations, initiatives
and activities whose solutions provide measurable
improvements in health, wellbeing, social exclusion,
education, the labour market, integration, housing
or security. The fund finances businesses so that
organisations such as municipalities and regional
authorities can procure their services based on pay-
ment for results achieved, rather than for services
rendered. Returns are linked to the results generated
by investments, ensuring that individuals, investors
and society all benefit in various ways from the
fund’s work. utfallsfonden.se
