RBS is actively supporting conservation through the work of RBS Foundation India that provides sustainable livelihoods to forest-dependent communities in the ecologically fragile landscapes of the country. The livelihood program supports tribal and other forest-dependent households to enhance their incomes and engage in judicious natural resource management thereby paving way for constructive rapport between communities and efforts towards conservation.  As an extension of work done by RBS in India, we have institutionalized the RBS ‘Earth Heroes’ Awards from 2011 to recognize and honor individuals and institutions who work exceptionally hard to preserve and protect our wildlife and habitats.
