Krithi K. Karanth, CEO and Chief Conservation Scientist of the Centre for Wildlife Studies, has been named to the 2024 class of The Explorers Club 50 (Fifty People Changing the World that the World Needs to Know About).
Every year, the Explorers Club 50 recognises 50 people who are doing remarkable work to promote science and exploration, but remain below the radar and out of limelight.
According to the Centre for Wildlife Studies in 2020, Richard Wiess, president of the 120 year old Explorers Club, came up with the idea to create an Explorers 50 award, to celebrate 50 individuals making a significant impact within their communities across the globe, with little recognition for their efforts.
