“Global Tiger Day is a powerful reminder of the urgent need to protect tigers and their habitats. Born from the ambitious goals set at the 2010 Saint Petersburg Tiger Summit to double the wild tiger population, this day is a pivotal occasion to honour conservation efforts, rally communities worldwide, and inspire continued action to safeguard these majestic creatures.
India’s pre-event celebrations across ten villages will include drawing competitions, storytelling, quizzes, and environmental games, culminating in a main event on July 29. This event will highlight tiger recovery efforts in Manas, cultural programs, and panel discussions on the intersection of tiger conservation and local culture.
Thailand will host a three-day event from July 25 to 27, featuring forums and dialogue sessions on tiger conservation. Key speakers, including the IUCN Asia Regional Director and Panthera representatives, will address the importance of species conservation in achieving development goals.
In Nepal, the National Conservation Forum from June 28 to 30 included a panel discussion on tiger conservation, presenting ITHCP results and proposing strategies for future efforts. The findings will be shared during their Global Tiger Day celebrations.”
