Taking science to the doorstep of rural schools in eastern Maharashtra, our Mobile Science Lab van is packed with microscopes, telescopes, and other tools for discovery. It serves students from predominantly indigenous communities living near forests, bringing STEM learning alive through hands-on experiments and local ecological exploration. Here, children connect the science of climate change to the forests, rivers, and wildlife that surround their lives.
We turn school grounds into living classrooms. Students create kitchen gardens, plant tiny native forests, and keep nature journals as they watch their ecosystems grow. Some also visit our Urban Biodiversity Hubs, where they explore native plant species, pollinator-friendly habitats, soil regeneration, water harvesting, and art-based ecological storytelling. Through books and games in local languages, they learn that climate action can start in their own hands - and their own soil.
