Preserving Culture
We work in collaboration with communities towards extensive documentation of tangible and intangible cultural heritage, living traditions and the stories of people. This happens through research programmes, audio-visual documentation, upskilling workshops and digital literacy classes. Our team also trains youth in the community in sourcing data and documentation skills.

We equip village youth, women, artisans and other stakeholders with digital skills, financial literacy and marketing techniques, equitable participation, technological support, vocational training and innovative best practices. Capacity development needs a special focus on building life skills and vocational skills together in the young adults of the hill region. This safeguards the Himalayan state against excessive migration and the uprooting of its social fabric.
