OUR WORK
VIKALP SANGAM
As the world hurtles towards greater ecological devastation the biggest question facing us is: are there alternative ways of meeting human needs and aspirations, without trashing the earth and without leaving half of humanity behind?
GLOBAL TAPESTRY OF ALTERNATIVES
The Global Tapestry of Alternatives is an initiative seeking to create solidarity networks and strategic alliances amongst all these alternatives on local, regional and global levels. It locates itself in or helps initiate interactions among alternatives. It operates through varied and light structures, defined in each space, that are horizontal, democratic, inclusive and non-centralized, using diverse local languages and other ways of communicating.

The map provides detailed information about several Community Conserved Areas across India. The sites can be filtered according to their ecosystem type.
