In K-Plot, Paschim Sripatinagar, where life is deeply influenced by the tidal landscape of the Indian Sundarban, Pratima Maity is emerging as a powerful example of women-led leadership and community stewardship.

As the Group Leader of Banadevi BFIG, Pratima has played a pivotal role in mobilising women to protect and monitor the 2-hectare mangrove restoration site supported by SMFG India Credit. For her, the work does not end with planting saplings. The real challenge lies in ensuring that the restored ecosystem continues to thrive.

By organising and distributing monitoring responsibilities among group members, Pratima has fostered a strong sense of shared ownership and accountability. Today, women in the group are not just participants in a project but active custodians of a valuable natural resource that strengthens the resilience of their community.

Her leadership extends beyond environmental stewardship. Pratima has also successfully adopted Backyard Poultry Farming (BYPF) practices introduced through the project. By focusing on timely vaccination, proper feeding, and safe shelter for chicks, she has achieved high survival rates and healthier bird growth, strengthening her household livelihood.

What makes her journey particularly inspiring is her willingness to share knowledge with others. Women in her group increasingly look to Pratima's experience and practical guidance to improve their own poultry-rearing practices. Through action and example, she has become a trusted peer mentor within the community.

Pratima's story highlights how ecosystem restoration and livelihood development can go hand in hand. While she motivates women to protect and nurture mangroves, she also demonstrates how improved livelihood practices can enhance household resilience. Together, these efforts have transformed her role from project participant to a community steward whose influence extends well beyond her own home.

Her journey reflects an important lesson from the SMFG India Credit - supported initiative: when women are empowered to strengthen both their livelihoods and the ecosystems they depend on, they become powerful agents of sustainable change.

Through hands-on training and starter kits, mushroom cultivation has been introduced among rural households, enabling communities to move from learning to actual production. The first harvests are not just mushroomsโ€”they represent confidence, practical skills, and a promising source of additional income. Seeing fresh mushrooms grow successfully at their own homes demonstrates the potential of this climate-resilient livelihood model in the Sundarban.
With continued technical support and market linkages under the SBIF LEAP โ€“ Climate Smart Livelihood Project, NEWS has succeeded in Sustainable Mushroom Cultivation intervention at Ramgopalpur, Basanti Block, South 24 Parganas, which can grow into stronger producer clusters and sustainable household enterprises in the near future.

Under SBIF LEAP โ€“ Climate Smart Livelihood supported by SBI Foundation, NEWS is promoting scientific seedling nursery management as an alternative income-generating livelihood with farming communities of Sundarban. Technical demonstrations on nursery setup and seedling raising in polyhouses were conducted at Rampur village of Kultali Block, followed by a similar intervention at Purandar village of Basanti Block.

Participants practiced systematic soil preparation using cocopeat, vermicompost, Trichoderma and Pseudomonas, followed by tray filling, seed placement and protected polyhouse management. Early sowing of brinjal, chilli, tomato, cauliflower, cabbage and capsicum aims to ensure timely and healthy seedlings ahead of the winter season.

With increased production of disease-free healthy saplings, the intervention can open up new opportunities for sapling sales, strengthen household incomes and support greater winter vegetable productionโ€”transforming a scientific seedling nursery management into a promising, climate-smart livelihood pathway.

On 10 September 2026, Nature Environment & Wildlife Society (NEWS), under the Living Lakes Biodiversity and Climate Project (LLBCP), observed International Vulture Awareness Day (IVAD) 2026 at Parijat Academy, Guwahati.
The programme brought together 74 students from Classes VIII, IX and Xโ€”including 50 female and 24 male studentsโ€”to explore the fascinating world of vultures and understand their vital role in maintaining healthy ecosystems. ๐ŸŒ
๐Ÿ“ฝ๏ธ The programme featured:
๐Ÿ”น A presentation on vulture ecology and conservation
๐Ÿ”น A documentary screening
๐Ÿ”น Interactive awareness sessions
๐Ÿ”น An engaging quiz on vultures, their threats and conservation
๐Ÿ† Prizes were presented to the quiz winners in recognition of their enthusiasm and performance.
The session provided an engaging platform for young learners to discover why vultures are essential to ecosystem health and why their conservation matters. It also encouraged students to develop a stronger sense of responsibility towards wildlife and biodiversity conservation.
NEWS sincerely thanks the school management, teachers, students, participants, and project partners for their valuable support and cooperation in making IVAD 2026 a success.
Letโ€™s keep raising awareness and work together to protect these remarkable and often misunderstood guardians of nature. ๐Ÿฆ…๐ŸŒฟ

๐Ÿ’ง๐ŸŒฑ Conservation begins with people who care.

Throughout the 4th Sustainability Leadership Journey, participants shared not only the environmental challenges they face, but also the experiences that inspire them to keep working for healthier lakes and wetlands.

๐ŸŽฅ In this video, Dr. Bedabati Kalita, from India and the Nature Environment & Wildlife Society (NEWS), introduces Deepor Beel, a wetland of exceptional biodiversity facing growing pressures from pollution, invasive species and unsustainable resource use.

For Bedabati, one lesson stands out: when local communities combine traditional knowledge, cultural values and strong leadership, meaningful conservation becomes possible.

This initiative is part of the Living Lakes Biodiversity and Climate Project, funded by BMUKN through IKI and supported by German Postcode Lottery, Kรคrcher, Lonza, Ground Lake, Georg Fischer Foundation, and many individual donors.

From lakes and rivers to deltas, marshes and mangroves, wetlands across the world hold lessons in conservation, resilience and coexistence.
As India celebrates its 101st Ramsar Site, the 17th International Living Lakes Conference (17th LLC) will bring together practitioners, communities, and partners from across landscapes to share what works, what can be replicated, and what we can learn from one another.
Hosted in West Bengal (India), home to two very different Ramsar landscapes: the East Kolkata Wetlands, where wastewater becomes a resource, and the Sundarban Delta, where life thrives at the edge of land and sea, the 17th LLC, will offer you the opportunity to experience these remarkable landscapes and discover the stories and solutions they hold.

Come, share your story. Learn from others. Take new ideas home.

Participation is by invitation only.
