Be Wild & Explore, but stay connected to the Roots!
"WildRoots" is an opportunity for social cohesion and for building social capital. Environmental consciousness cannot exist in a vacuum and thus needs social space involving young minds to find true meaning and relevance. We look forward to arrest further environmental degradation by raising awareness and fostering social teamwork and ecological sensitivity and action.
What inspired WildRoots?
Our journey started with our love for the 'wild'. Exposure to natural spaces inspired us to explore, observe, and realise the connection that we have with our Planet. Hence, we decided to use 'Wild' in the name of our organisation. Everything is also dependent on the 'Roots'. WildRoots concentrates on laying down the basic foundations of conservation and grow with opportunities and success stories. Our inclination to involve the indigenous/grassroots communities in our activities is another reason why we have 'Roots' in our name. We wish to create a space where we embrace the ICT-(Information, Communication & Technology) Age, yet stay connected to the roots.
The WildRoots Experience is Inter-Disciplinary and in-sync with the National &
International Educational Strategy, Experiential Learning Guidelines & Policies
‘Art for Conservation’ - Integration of Nature-based Design for Environmental Awareness and Conservation
Education and Outreach - Collaboration with Indian and International Organisations
Our Impact Driven Vision, Goals and Actions
"The session was actually one the most interactive session I’ve ever attended. All through the session you made us think out of the box regarding the concerned topics. I felt we were actually being heard and our ideas were being respected and considered. The video that u presented during the meeting represented UNITY IN DIVERSITY as people from various regions , practising different occupations and speaking different languages came together sharing the same passion, passion for nature conservation . This really motivated me in being an active participant in this program. Moreover all of us.
