Foundation for Ecological Security

The Foundation for Ecological Security (FES) is a registered non-profit organization based in Anand, Gujarat, India, working towards the ecological restoration and conservation of land and water resources in ecologically fragile, degraded, and marginalized regions of India through the concentrated and collective efforts of village communities.

FES has been involved in assisting in the restoration, management, and governance of common property land resources since 1986. The organization uses a holistic approach to resource management by intertwining principles of nature conservation and local self-governance in order to accelerate ecological restoration, as well as improve the living conditions of the poor.

Most of FES's efforts are concentrated in the dryland regions of the country; however, the landscapes worked on are as diverse as scrublands, tidal mudflats, dense forests, ravines, grasslands, farm fields, and water bodies. Provided by Wikipedia
