NILGIRIS FOREVER

About Nilgiris Forever

Nilgiris Forever is a movement that brings together NGOs, citizens, government bodies, industry leaders, activists, donors, experts, youth, and media across the Nilgiris (and eventually the Nilgiris Biosphere Reserve) to create a shared, sustainable vision for the region’s future.

Our mission is to foster collaboration, bridge gaps, amplify impact, and secure funding for NGOs while driving collective action toward long-term ecological, social, and economic resilience.

The Nilgiris Biosphere

Rising over 2000 meters above the sea level, and extending north to south for nearly 1600 kms along the western coast of peninsular India, the Western Ghats are home to over 30 percent of the country’s endemic flora and fauna. The United Nations has declared the area one of the world’s ten biodiversity hotspots.

Few regions in the world can boast of a time-honoured, harmonious coexistence among its many distinct indigenous groups. The extraordinary variety of their rituals, customs, and languages pays obeisance to their mountain land and her abundance. These make it a region of immense ethnographic significance, and among the most researched areas in the world, anthropologically speaking.
