The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has said, legal instruments and partnerships are needed to build a stronger framework for conserving and securing wildlife corridors and landscapes. A three-day workshop held by WWF concluded in Delhi yesterday. Experts from wildlife and environment organisations and officials from the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change took part in the workshop.

In a statement, the global wildlife body said, the discussions were held on the importance and challenges of maintaining and securing wildlife landscapes in an increasingly crowded space. They assessed and identified locations of corridors in wildlife landscapes.

On the final day of the workshop, participants detailed out the key elements of a corridor conservation policy with discussions around key actions and legal instruments that need to be in place to help build a stronger framework for corridors.
