Ambika Prasad Research Foundation (APRF), India was established in the year 2016 on the banks of River Mahanadi in Cuttack with a vision to conduct research and development in the fields of science, conservation, education and livelihood. APRF's mission is to take a step towards conservation and sustainability of the environment. The foundation is an active platform to raise awareness on environment related issues. It is an opportunity to sensitize everyone to make constructive efforts to protect our environment and natural resources.[1]

What APRF Does [2] APRF is working on the interconnection and trying to build a bridge between the scientific world and the common people to preserve the traditional knowledge. APRF also working on the flora, fauna and the co-existing environment. The outcome of all research is incomplete if we don’t go to the field, if we cannot identify the plant and if we don’t interact with people. So, focusing on the grassroot level to research is the base work of APRF. This includes

Medicinal plant identification, taxonomy, antimicrobial activity, toxicity, ecology, distribution, IUCN status and cultivation. Plant diversity assessment in the field, Wetland flora and fauna studies, Carnivorous and parasitic plant studies. Orchid biology, Sand dune flora, Riverine ecosystem, Ecological field technique (ecological index), Phytochemistry, Antidiabetic activities, Cytotoxicity activity, Species behavioral studies, Food behavior of mega fauna ( Elephant/ Tiger/ Leopard etc.)[3]

Mission of APRF[4]

To promote the research in the field of Conservation of flora and fauna to save the world. To educate the people for conserving the Biodiversity through documentation, research activities, online and print medias & awareness program.

Activities for providing better health and R&D work on medicinal plants for formulation of drugs. Activities on water conservation, river ecology, wetlands, coastal ecology & climate changes. Visions of APRF [5] To fill the research gap in the field of taxonomy and create professional taxonomist & field biologist. Inventorying the population & conservation of threatened taxa. To establish the dynamics of ecological balance by determining the delicate relationship between flora & fauna. To study the dynamics of riverine ecosystem and document the breeding behavior and develop the conservation protocol for RET avifauna & other faunal and floral species. Conserve and restore wetlands & to map develop & integrated management strategies for the wetlands & backwater ecosystems. To develop conservation protocol for mega fauna through the food of prey & prey predator relationship. To study the visible threats and impacts of climate change on the beach ecology. Ensure water security, health security and quality of life through enriched environment. Screening & standardization of wild food plants for propagation as future horticulture plants with an aim to reduce malnutrition & food problems. To enhance food security by conservation, value addition and advanced research in wild tuber crops wild edible plant species. Documentation and restoration of traditional therapeutic systems. To find the gap and fight against antimicrobial resistance problems. Validation of tribal claims on medicinal plants and formulation of drugs against Anti-microbial resistance.
