The Kerala State Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan 2025-23, developed by the Kerala State Biodiversity Board (KSBB), outlines a roadmap for achieving ecological sustainability by 2035. The strategy focuses on eight key objectives, including the promotion of indigenous crop and livestock diversity and the conservation of native breeds through genetic mapping. It emphasizes the importance of local governance in biodiversity conservation, leveraging Kerala's successful decentralization model. The plan includes initiatives for participatory forest ecosystem management, such as enhancing human-wildlife coexistence and regulating unscientific mining. Additionally, it aims to implement community-centric ecotourism guidelines and operationalize the City Biodiversity Index in major cities to monitor progress. A state-level steering committee has been established to ensure effective implementation and coordination across various departments.
