CEPF and ATREE, in their endeavour to protect and conserve the irreplaceable Western Ghats, have granted funds to sustain the causes of many independent projects. This channel showcases such projects that have each embodied a significant facet of Western Ghats Conservation.
Western Ghats Programme
The world is growing but the Earth is diminishing, thanks to the the constant alienation and abuse that human interference causes to the delicate balance of nature. Envisioning a greener, ecologically healthy tomorrow, Critical Ecosystems Partnership Fund ( CEPF) in association with Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE) have backed the efforts of various conservationists and research outfits which has empowered their pilot projects and given them the wings to make a significant difference. With 103 grants amounting to over $6.1 million, the constant support and fundings have helped revive different species of Western Ghats and reaffirm indigenous rights of the tribes who made made the Ghats their home.
The initiative itself is a new wave that instills hope for a better tomorrow.

Species Recovery & Management

In the name of development and urbanization, it is conveniently forgotten that all species have as much right of ownership of the Earth, as much as human beings do. This has not only resulted in the greedy encroachment of their habitats but also in the ruin of the natural balance that their existence causes. Western Ghats, being the home to a quarter of the country’s wild life has particularly ...
Biodiversity Portal

In a dire time where ecological researches are ignored due to vested interests, the future of conservation seems bleak without the support of impeccable data. Having felt this need, CEPF and Atree brought together French Institute of Pondicherry and Strand Life Sciences Limited to make the ‘Western Ghats Portal’ possible. This priceless data bank holds some of the most meticulously researched c...
Conservation Incentives

We take the delicate balance that ecological processes and their services hold for granted despite using them for our day-to-day needs. While the processes are interdependent, there is just as much human dependence on them especially in a heavily populated area like the Western Ghats. Thus the line between that of usage and respecting the natural existence of forests thus blur away. After all, ...
Endemic Species Conservation

The belief that the human form and life has somehow given us control over Ecosystems is why a lot of other life forms are at the brink of extinction. While the causes of ‘development’ and ‘urbanisation’ are reasons why the intricate balance of many habitats are long gone; plain old arrogance that nature’s rules can be defied are other reasons why bio diversity is shrinking. To support and uphol...
Green Economies

The bounty of forests has been the lifeline of civilizations from the beginning of time itself. This bounty however can get sparse given the greed with which forests are plundered. The primary flaw behind this is the failure to understand the intricate balance that the immediate life forests hold and using them as an easily replaceable resource. Green Economies is therefore a breakthrough in th...
Indigenous Communities and Conservation
Переглядів 12 тис.9 років тому
‘Civilization’ and ‘development’ have reached an entirely 'urban' homogeneity. We forget that these ideas aren’t true to all human beings. Considering how the tribal communities have lived a far more nature friendly life for centuries now, it is time that we respect the space they have created for themselves. Most tribal communities depend on forest produce directly for their living. This film ...
This is a magnificent region. I've done some birding in Tamil Nadu in the past and I'd love to spend a few birding and wildlifing the length of the Western Ghats. Suggest ATREE look into running an international "Bird Fair" or "Wildlife Fair" in the locality to attract tourism and help boost the skills of and number of local nature guides. This would make jobs for guides, drivers, people in accommodation and associated services and further strengthen livelihoods and value in conserving this important region.
Western Ghats The most ecologically sensitive areas and lungs of India must be protected at any cost. Thanks a lot to all the conservationists.

Few words of the first sentence is beautiful ' The world is growing but the Earth is diminishing....'
Western Ghats starts from KANYAKUMARI... Our Lives in Western Ghats
This is huge money waste! Or rather routed to fake people! There is absolutely no lack of awareness in the indigenous people here. They have been living in this nature since centuries and I BET YOU DONT KNOW BETTER THAN THEM.

Invasive plants are spreading in Western ghats! Need immediate actions! Before it kills the entire Flora and fauna.

Excellent
Complete destruction of large aquifers was took place in large scale in previous 3 decades all over the India.
Best cinematography, perfect editing and voice over,, the best documentary I ever seen
Recognized as Biodiversity Hottest hotspots by UNESCO'S man and biosphere program
Indigenous community is hot fishing grounds for Cristian missionaries, who come in the garb of conservation work, but instead work on convertion,like in the north east, entire costal belt etc ,so I am cautious of these foreign ngos, save the indigenous communities,save Bharat,from these NGO's
