A Network Built By Professionals Across
Practitioners from across India are already part of the network
Connect
Bridging the gaps between India's wildlife guardians — from Kaziranga's rhino protectors to Ranthambore's tiger researchers
Collaborate
Cross-pollinating wisdom across disciplines — when a filmmaker meets a field biologist, stories that save species are born
Strengthen
Building India's conservation backbone — responsible engagement with wild spaces, wild lives, and the communities that protect them
The Problem We Solve
Remarkable work is happening in India's forests. But too much of it happens in silence.
Deep in the heart of Pench, a biologist tracks a tigress raising her cubs alone. In the Nilgiris, a filmmaker documents the last great elephant corridors. Along the Brahmaputra, a journalist writes about communities living alongside rhinos. In Goa, an ecotourism leader pioneers sustainable safaris that fund local schools.
They've never met. The Indian Wildlife Network exists to change that — to be the connective tissue India's wildlife community has always needed. A trusted canopy where every voice finds its echo.

Talks by Leading Voices
Sit across from researchers who've spent decades in Indian forests. Hear from the scientists tracking gharials in the Chambal, the journalists exposing poaching networks, the leaders shaping policy.

A Living Network
Not just a membership. A living, breathing ecosystem.
IWN comes alive through ongoing interaction among its members — these are the spaces where India's wildlife community connects.
National Gatherings & Dialogues
Once a year, India's entire wildlife community gathers under one canopy — researchers, photographers, filmmakers, and field heroes — to debate, share, and chart the next decade of conservation.
Regional & City-Level Meetings
From Bengaluru and Guwahati to Mumbai and Dehradun — intimate evenings in 28+ states where neighbours discover they're fighting for the same forest.
Collaborative Working Groups
Focused task forces tackling India's hardest wildlife problems — human-wildlife conflict, sustainable tourism models, and meaningful youth engagement in conservation.
Online Knowledge Exchanges
Digital forums, monthly webinars, and active discussions that connect a researcher in Ladakh with a filmmaker in Goa in a single afternoon.
Public Nature Programmes
Walks, talks, and screenings designed to bring everyday people closer to India's wild — because conservation only works when communities care.

Founding Voices
Built by people who've spent their lives in the field.
IWN wasn't dreamed up in a boardroom. It was born around campfires in Kanha, on boat rides through the Sundarbans, in editing suites where footage of India's last great wilderness areas was being pieced together. The founding group brings together decades of lived experience — people who've counted pugmarks, documented species, built responsible tourism models, and told the stories that shaped India's relationship with its wild.
Founding Voices will be announced soon.
