Connecting Landscapes for securing a future
In the untamed realms where tigers stride, conserving their vast landscapes demands more than the efforts of forest departments or conservation organizations alone. A vibrant coalition of communities, scientists, policymakers, and local stewards weaves together a multi-disciplinary tapestry to safeguard these ecosystems. Drawing from the vision of the Global Tiger Recovery Program, this approach blends ecological science, such as habitat mapping and prey monitoring, with community-driven initiatives like sustainable livelihoods and conflict mitigation. Farmers, indigenous groups, tourism operators, and researchers all play pivotal roles, ensuring connected corridors, resilient habitats, and thriving biodiversity. By integrating climate-smart strategies and transboundary partnerships, this collective endeavour secures not just tigers but entire ecosystems, fostering harmony between nature and people. GTF is working on this with its conservation partner agencies and some of the ongoing initiatives includes collaboration with varied government and departments and multi-lateral institutions.
