In continuation of release of the summary ‘TIGER~MEETR – 2015’ on 20 January 2015 http://www.wii.gov.in/release_tiger_meetr the full report on Management Effectiveness Evaluation’ (MEE) of Tiger Reserves in India, 2014 is now available for access.

The Management Effectiveness Evaluation (MEE) process is a global framework to evaluate the performance of protected areas. India is among the select countries in the world that has institutionalized the MEE process for its network of protected areas. India has not only independently assessed the effectiveness of 28 tiger reserves in 2006, but has taken this process forward, by extending this evaluation in 2010 to 39 tiger reserves and in 2014 to 43 tiger reserves. The outcomes of this assessment are encouraging. Field Directors and front-line staff are putting up a valiant effort to conserve our natural heritage. Despite all odds, there has been an improvement in the overall MEE score from 65 percent in 2010 (39 Tiger Reserves) to 69 percent in 2014 (43 Tiger Reserves), which is higher than the global mean of 56 percent.

The WII-MEE-TR team comprised of: Dr. V.B. Mathur, Shri V.K. Uniyal, Shri P.C. Tyagi, Shri Aseem Shrivastav, Shri Shubharanjan Sen, Shri Mukul Trivedi, and Dr. Nasim Ahmad Ansari.
