Nature Environment And Wildlife Society

About us

Nature Environment & Wildlife Society (NEWS), founded in 1991, is a conservation NGO based in Kolkata, India. Our primary focus is to conserve wildlife, ecology, natural resources & sustainable livelihoods for an improved environment. NEWS is a name of conviction in the conservation circle through its work, passion & dedication. We work for a better future where scientific research, knowledge dissemination, community engagement & policy advocacy are put together to achieve sustainable development

In this fast changing world, conservation is a continuous process where new challenges emerge every day. There is no such milestone in conservation which can be achieved once & for all. However, the process must adjust to social, economic, environmental & scientific advancements. We believe that without community’s empowerment & participation no amount of effort can sustain any threatened or vulnerable ecosystem, livelihood or natural resources

NEWS is managed by a Governing Body comprised with a pool of dynamic people from allied professions. The Governing Body is supported technically by Advisory Board & Ethical Committee
