Wildlife Conservation Trust
Using the Tiger as a metaphor for all of nature, Wildlife Conservation Trust (WCT) was envisioned to preserve and protect India’s rich natural heritage. Currently, WCT works in and around 160 Protected Areas across 23 states in the country covering 82% of India’s 51 tiger reserves, 21% of the 769 Protected Areas, and impacting a population base of approximately 3.5 million people. WCT aims to reduce anthropogenic pressure on forests through a scientifically rooted 360 degree approach involving the multiple stakeholders such as the forest department, local communities, corporates and other NGOs, with a firm belief in landscape-level conservation.
