Join us for an inspiring online session with Mr. Manish Rajankar (Foundation for Economic and Ecological Development), who will share his journey from the wetlands of Vidarbha, Maharashtra, where the Dhivar- a traditional fisherfolk community- are working towards conserving their ecosystem and biodiversity.
In a discussion moderated by Mr. Satish Awate (Centre for Environment Education), they will delve into the topic, ‘Communities and Ponds of Vidarbha: A model of community-based conservation and ecological revival.’ Together, they will explore the impact of women’s leadership as a key strategy and how these community-led efforts have created a striking example of human–nature coexistence.
