Conserving biodiversity of the Eastern Ghats: Challenges and the way forward<\/strong><\/h3>\n


\nDates: 30th April and 1st May 2022<\/strong><\/h4>\n

www.tirupatibiodiversity.org\/events\/eastern-ghats-symposium<\/a><\/p>\n

The Eastern Ghats are a discontinuous chain of mountains along the east coast of India covering an area of 75000 sq.km. Despite the fact that the Eastern Ghats are home to several endemic flora and fauna, like the Red Sanders tree and the Golden Gecko, habitats are rapidly being degraded or lost entirely. With increasing development in the region, there is a need for urgent scientific research and conservation action.<\/p>\n

This symposium will bring together researchers, managers, and policy-makers who have worked in the landscape in the last two decades or more, in an attempt to consolidate existing knowledge, promote dialogue<\/p>\n
