About Us

Home ◈ About
Most people ask us, "How do you fund your forests?

Aranyaarth is where Education meets Action. We don’t just ask for donations; we earn them by teaching the next generation, and every rupee earned goes back to the soil.

since 2018


Here is how the cycle works:


  • It Starts in the Classroom: We partner with schools to run our Sustainability Education workshops. Students learn to lead climate action, and schools pay a fee for these expert programs

  • Nature Returns: That same money buys saplings, tools, and care for our Ecosystem Restoration sites.

  • The Money Transforms: We don’t keep the profit. The income generated from teaching is moved directly to our field projects.

The Mission & Vision
Our Mission (The "Now")

Imagine a forest cut in half by a road. Animals can't cross. Seeds can't travel. Our mission is to build "Wilderness Corridors"—bridges of trees that reconnect these lonely forests. And we do it with the most powerful force on earth: Students.

 

Our Vision (The "Future")

We see a future where a child doesn't just read about a forest in a textbook but stands inside one they helped plant. We are raising leaders who understand that "Economy" and "Ecology" are the same word.

Hi guys!
In 2019, we looked at the environmental crisis and realized something: We have enough awareness, but we don't have enough action.

I didn't want to start just another NGO that asks for money. I wanted to build a system that works. Combining my engineering background with a passion for nature, Aranyaarth was born to solve two problems at once: Our schools need better climate education, and our forests need to be reconnected.

Today, supported by IIM Bangalore and UNESCO, that small idea has grown into a movement."
