Bhoomi Habba returns to Bengaluru
The 18th edition of the Bhoomi Habba festival is returning to Bengaluru with a focus on community-led climate action and environmental stewardship. The event features workshops, storytelling, and discussions on sustainable living.
Why it matters
Community-based environmental initiatives are increasingly recognized as vital for local climate adaptation and ecological preservation.
Marginalised communities often have a more symbiotic relationship with the earth and environment, believes Mercy Kappen, Co-founder and Strategic Advisor at Visthar, a Bengaluru-based civil society organisation that works in areas of education, training and environmental issues. “They know how to make a living without ruining things. I think there is a lot we can learn from them.”
