Samrakshan is an organization that works nationally to promote sustainable livelihoods of forest-dwelling communities. The organization has been working, since December 1997, in various capacities like research and documentation, lobbying and networking, and direct field intervention with the local community in the Kuno region. The direct field intervention, supported by WWF-India, began with a two-member team in September 1999 in the backdrop of the ambitious lion reintroduction project of the Madhya Pradesh forest department.
