Hyderabad: Heartfulness Institute announced its addition to the Global Biodiversity Alliance (GBA) membership, as acknowledged by the Global Biodiversity Alliance Secretariat, and its association with the Georgetown Declaration.
As a member, Heartfulness will be part of a collaborative platform dedicated to advancing global efforts to stall and reverse the loss of biodiversity, in line with the Kunming Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
As a Global Biodiversity Alliance member, Heartfulness, through its global network of 5,000 centres in 160 countries, will work on raising awareness about biodiversity responsibilities. There is a severe lack of India-specific data in sections related to ecology and restoration, and through this membership, Heartfulness can further Global Biodiversity Alliance's efforts in India to gather this data.
Vishwas Subramanyam, Director, PR and Partnerships (UK & Europe) from Heartfulness Institute, said, "Through this membership, we are hoping to have knowledge transfer and technical know-how with Global Biodiversity Alliance and other member organisations, logistical support, and share resources towards protecting global biodiversity."
