Greenhood Nepal Greenhood Nepal is a science-driven non-profit, helping to save Nepal’s most threatened wildlife

Greenhood seeks to empower people from across Nepal–with knowledge, opportunities and research–to respond to emerging conservation challenges and to better protect and manage the natural resources. We have a particular interest in applied research and community-based conservation. At the moment, we are working on a range of species including rhino, tiger, red panda, pangolin, turtle and endangered

flora like taxus and orchids. We conduct research, develop local conservation action based on the research and communicate conservation science to the people and policymakers.

This week was a pangolin week for Kathmandu! It has been filled with learning, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing among leading pangolin conservationists, scientists, and government representatives from Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka.

Together, we worked rigorously to envision and plan for a more secure future for pangolins across the region. Sincere thanks to all participants for their invaluable contributions, the facilitators for their guidance and expertise, and everyone who worked behind the scenes to make this workshop a success.

The workshop may have ended, but the commitment continues. Let us keep working together to protect, conserve, and appreciate pangolins and their habitat for generations to come.

Turtles survived several mass extinctions, but can they survive us?

Nepal’s only tortoise and many freshwater turtles are under serious risk from several human driven threats.

This world turtle day, let us all pledge to protect these silent survivors before they vanish from our wetlands and forests.

कछुवाहरूले पृथ्वीका धेरै प्राकृतिक विनाशहरू पार गरिसके, तर के उनीहरू मानवबाट हुने खतराबाट बाँच्न सक्लान्?

नेपालमा पाइने कछुवाहरू विभिन्न मानवजन्य खतराका कारण लोप हुने जोखिममा छन्।

यस विश्व कछुवा दिवसमा, हाम्रा सिमसार र वनमा रहेका कछुवाहरू संरक्षण गर्न सहयोग पुय्याउने प्रतिबद्धता गरौँ । 🐢

International Day for Biological Diversity 2026!

Conservation begins at home, in our forests, rivers, landscapes, and communities. Every local action we take to protect biodiversity creates an impact far beyond borders. This World Biodiversity Day, we stand with communities working every day to protect the species, ecosystems, and biodiversity of the planet.

Together with Division Forest Office and local communities in Makawanpur, we are saving globally threatened orchids and yews. The journey has been full of learning, engaging in meaningful conversations, and witnessing communities actively protecting their natural resource. It’s inspiring to see conservation efforts growing stronger through collective action and shared responsibility.

We are thankful for the support of the Whitley Fund for Nature

Publication alert: Understanding the Medicinal Orchid Trade in Central Nepal Through Harvest Monitoring, published in Ethnobotany and Economic Botany.

This paper describes a commercial-scale trade in wild medicinal orchids, largely undocumented in the literature but likely a conservation concern and linked to rural livelihoods. The paper will be of interest to different audience because of the method, volume of trade, and also because of the global importance of Orchidaceae.

We thank Biodiversity Challenge Funds for funding this project. We are also grateful to Dr. Tamara Ticktin and Dr. Jacob Phelps for their valuable guidance.

Turtles are not pets, they belong in the wild.
