WWF-India’s Dolphin Conservation Programme, established in 2000, contributed to the conservation of the Ganga river dolphin through scientific research, community led field conservation projects, policy advocacy and communications & outreach. The programme worked closely with Government agencies and other stakeholders and contributed to various policies related to Dolphin Conservation including the Dolphin Action Plan 2010-2020.
As part of WWF-India’s 2020 Conservation Strategy, this programme is entering a new phase, which will consolidate the actions and lessons from the experience thus far and expanding Dolphin conservation work to different locations in the Ganga and to other basins including Brahmaputra and Indus.
