About — Western Ghat Ecology Expert Panel
The Western Ghat Ecology Expert Panel is a high‑level committee of ecologists, forest officials and NGOs appointed by the Indian government to review the Western Ghats’ ecological health. Its assessments shape national and state policies on biodiversity, land‑use and climate resilience. In 2023 it urged adding 1.5 million hectares of protected corridors for tiger and elephant movement.
