Matriarch Circle

The Matriarch Circle is an extraordinary group of women, united by Elephant Family, who form a formidable force for protecting Asia's wildlife. Like their namesake, the women in our Matriarch Circle stand with strength and compassion.​

Comprised of ​environmentalists, green business leaders, philanthropists, creatives, wild spirits and adventurers, the Matriarch Circle is a powerful group of compassionate leaders who are among our closest and most important supporters.

Through an inspiring calendar of bespoke events curated throughout the year, we bring our Matriarch Circle together to learn, celebrate and create impact together.

The Matriarch Circle is fundamental in helping Elephant Family to reach its ambition of safeguarding Asia's extraordinary wildlife for future generations.

The elephant matriarch is a remarkable leader—calm under pressure, fiercely protective of her family, and guided by a powerful memory that allows her to navigate vast landscapes and avoid danger.

The matriarch nurtures young elephants, maintains harmony within the group, and makes critical decisions about when and where the herd travels.

Her leadership is built on experience, intelligence, empathy, and resilience.
