Global Wildlife Fair (GWF)
The Global Wildlife Fair is proudly to associated with some of the most esteemed organizations in the field of conservation and sustainable tourism. Our partnerships with the Wildlife Trust of India (WTI) and the Asian Ecotourism Network (AEN) reflect our commitment to preserving the planet and promoting responsible and sustainable tourism.

Wildlife Trust of India (WTI)
The Wildlife Trust of India is one of the leaders in wildlife conservation, dedicated to protecting the rich biodiversity of India. Mainly focusing on securing wildlife corridors, rescuing distressed animals, and advocating for strong wildlife laws. WTI’s work is both impactful and inspiring to everyone. Beyond these efforts, WTI plays a crucial role in advising the government on natural heritage conservation. The organization’s involvement has gone beyond advising the national government on natural heritage conservation. WTI has involvement in several  Indian delegations to international forums like CITES, UNESCO, and CMS underlines its significant influence on global conservation policies.

Asian Ecotourism Network (AEN)
The Asian Ecotourism Network is a guiding light for sustainable tourism in Asia, bringing together a community of like-minded individuals and organizations dedicated to protecting biodiversity through responsible travel. AEN believes that ecotourism can achieve the triple bottom line—economic growth, environmental sustainability, and social equity—making it perfectly suited to the richly diverse regions of Asia that require both nature conservation and livelihood opportunities.
AEN’s work goes beyond borders, promoting global standards in sustainable tourism to ensure that everyone moves in the same direction toward a common goal. Whether it’s advising on government projects or working on the ground as an NGO, AEN’s team is committed to making a tangible difference. Their approach is deeply community-based, particularly in Asia, where ecotourism initiatives often serve as vital sources of income and conservation. AEN’s dedication is not just about projects; it’s about building a global family of like-minded people who can push forward even in the face of challenges.

AEN serves as a guiding light for sustainable tourism in Asia, where like-minded people and organizations come together with regards to preserving biodiversity through ethical travel. While it believes that ecotourism can be an ideal strategy for attaining economic growth, environmental sustainability, and social equity (the triple bottom line), these are particularly suited to the diverse regions of Asia that need both nature conservation initiatives and livelihood opportunities.
