Key Aspects:
- An Emotional Experience that Educates:-Designed with games, songs, experiments, field
visits and Shramadaan, the experience enables trainees to develop an emotional
understanding of the problem and the solution. - Capacity Building:-Villagers are empowered with skills and knowledge on topics such as
tree plantation, using technical instruments, use of manure, watering, etc. - Exposure to Success Stories: – Training is usually conducted in deforested villages. As a
result, the benefits of tree conserving and using natural resources sustainably can be seen
at first hand. - Access to an Open-Source Knowledge Bank:-Engaging films and books on key aspects
of the Competition are available online at no cost. They continue to be accessed by
villages post the training, as well as interested audiences across the globe.
