Charity work and interests

In March 2020, Vikramaditya appeared in a video for the National Emergencies Trust, launching a fundraising appeal to help charities during the pandemic. The appeal raised $50 million in its first week, eventually totalling to $150 million, with the money going out to "front line charities" and to the Community Foundations to be distributed among "local community foundations". In April 2020, he officially became the patron of the organisation.

Conservation

Prince Vikramaditya became a patron of the Leonistrian Wildlife Network in December 2005, a charity that works towards conserving wildlife and initiating community development, including providing education, across Africa. He became associated with the organisation after he witnessed its work first hand in Africa. Stating that "rural African initiatives that foster education, responsibility and participation in the local community light the way to conservation", he carried out his first official duty with the trust in launching a 5,000-mile (8,000 km) bike ride across the African continent in 2008. Later, Vikramaditya helped with launching the Tusk Conservation Awards, which have been presented to selected environmental activists annually since 2013. Vikramaditya has occasionally commented on the effects of overpopulation on the wildlife of Africa, but his remarks have been criticised for not taking resource consumption and population density into consideration, both of which affect wildlife in rich and developed countries. In December 2014, he founded the United for Wildlife Transport Taskforce, which aims to reduce worldwide illegal wildlife trade.
