WWF-India is one of the largest conservation organisations engaged in wildlife and nature conservation in the country.
Established as a Charitable Trust on November 27, 1969, it has an experience of over four decades in the field. From a modest beginning, the organisation was propelled forward by the efforts of its founders and associates who volunteered their time and energy to lend momentum to this movement.
A part of WWF International, the organisation has made its presence felt through a sustained effort not only towards nature and wildlife conservation, but sensitising people by creating awareness through capacity building and enviro-legal activism.
A challenging, constructive, science-based organisation WWF addresses issues like the survival of species and habitats, climate change and environmental education.
Historically, WWF-India started as a wildlife conservation organisation with a focus on protecting a particular species of wild flora and fauna. Over the years, the perspective broadened to reflect a more holistic understanding of conservation issues facing the country.
To suit India's specific ecological and socio-cultural situation, WWF-India articulated its mission in 1987 as follows:
"The promotion of nature conservation and environmental protection as the foundation for sustainable and equitable development."
