    Welcome to the National Stakeholders Identification Thread for India!
    This thread identifies and maps critical stakeholders across sectors to support climate action, disaster risk reduction (DRR), biodiversity conservation, and sustainable development efforts in India. We aim to engage relevant actors to mobilize climate finance and strengthen partnerships for the Global Risks Forum 2025 and other global frameworks, including the Santiago Network for Loss and Damage.

    How You Can Contribute: Identify Stakeholders Across the Quintuple Helix Framework
    1- Academia and Research: Universities, think tanks, and research institutions focusing on sustainability, climate policy, DRR, and biodiversity in India.
    Example: Institutions like the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), climate research departments at major universities, and think tanks like TERI (The Energy and Resources Institute).

    2- Industry and Business: Corporations, startups, and financial institutions involved in renewable energy, green technologies, and climate finance.
    Example: Solar energy companies, green tech startups, financial institutions offering sustainable investment products, and industries transitioning to cleaner production practices.

    3- Civil Society and NGOs: Non-profits, advocacy groups, and community organizations working on conservation, disaster risk reduction, and sustainable development.
    Example: NGOs like WWF-India, SEEDS (Sustainable Environment and Ecological Development Society), and community groups focusing on biodiversity conservation or disaster resilience.

    4- Government and Public Sector: National and state government agencies involved in climate policy, environmental regulations, and disaster management.
    Example: Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), and state-level environment ministries.

    5- Natural Environment: Organizations managing ecosystems, protected areas, and promoting biodiversity conservation across India.
    Example: National parks management bodies, forest departments, and conservation initiatives focusing on wildlife and habitat preservation.
