200,000 saplings. Three villages. One living blueprint for nature.
Nagaland’s forests are community-owned, which means saving them requires the community to lead.
After years of uncontrolled logging and hunting threatened local wildlife, the people of Sukhai stepped up to reclaim their natural heritage. Today, local youth are using smart technology to map conservation boundaries and restore degraded land to bring drying water springs back to life.
Supported by TERI and the Mountains to Mangroves project, this isn't just about restoring land, it's about setting a global example for community-led conservation.
