Nisarg
Conservation starts from knowing the nature. Natural world is very vast and includes simple microbes to giant whales; small gardens to big national parks; and also we humans are an integral part of the nature. So, nature as our focus point, we started “Nisarg” with objectives of exploring the natural world by our activities like nature trails, trekking, field visits, guest lectures, group discussions ; educating ourselves about the natural world and outreaching to the people by our extension works and awareness programmes in nearby schools.
Objectives:
- Understanding the nature through field activities/ studies and field expert guidance.
