Gajjo
System Design
2025
Industry Project with WWF
Gajjo was a six-month-long project done in collaboration with WWF, focused on tackling human-elephant conflict in North Bengal. Through field research, long conversations with locals, and closely observing forest officers, the project shaped itself into a bilingual, inclusive app that helps communities report elephant sightings, send quick alerts and stay safe.
Project Duration: 6 Months
The system does three things. It lets villagers send quick alerts, helps forest officers respond faster, and keeps a shared log to build trust. After seeing families sleep with torches on, it no longer felt like just a project. It felt like something I owed them.
The Process
I spent 2 months in the jungles of North Bengal, speaking to more than 100 people to understand their problems and lifestyle.

Systematic Reporting
The users get to instantly report elephant sightings or any damage caused by the elephant. This helps build a systematic database to identify major conflict hotspots and repeat invaders.
SOS Button for Emergencies
The SOS button allows the user to communicate their position with a single click in case of an emergency when the situation becomes hostile.
Systematic Data Collection
The simple and inclusive design makes reporting very easy for the users
