Dear Donors,

Thank You for your contributions! 


Insight Walk students aged 8-14 made this lantern depicting the brutal effects of climate change on their community.

This lantern, which is completely made from trash, depicts two stories. One is that of global leaders discussing climate change while at the same time, people are drowning in floods and facing multiple climate disasters.

Maharashtra has reported devastating crop losses on 36 million hectares in the past five years. India has been grappling with a staggering 17 floods every year for the past two decades. Climate scientists are sounding the alarm, warning that the situation will only worsen. Despite this, climate change is not a part of mainstream education's syllabus. At Insight Walk, however, climate change forms a core part of all subjects.

This year, our students built a drought-resilient farm. They made prototypes of a flood alarm, a motor pump for pumping out flood water, an automatic fire extinguisher to deal with fires caused by heat waves, and much more. All of it is made using local resources and lots of trash.

Our students spent 120 hours documenting the vanishing art of hand-making Vakal (Quilt) via hand embroidery!


120 days, 600 hours, 9 sarees, 30 spools of 492 feet thread, and 97,800 stitches! This is what it takes for 74-year-old Tanubai Govilkar to hand-make one Vakal.

Our students made this hand embroidery artwork to pay tribute to Tanubai for her brilliant skills, which often remain unheard of.

For the past few months, our students were observing Tanubai's work, and this inspired them to make this Vakal embroidery. At Insight Walk, students learn directly from the artists.

Earlier, they even made a miniature Vakal using old sarees! These students are documenting vanishing arts and livelihoods using multiple mediums. They are doing it because in a few years, we will lose several art forms, and there won't be any documentation of it!

To make people aware of the rapid decline in the population of forest owlets, 13-year-Sadhana made this artwork using coconut coir and husk.

182 bird species have become extinct since 1500. Many unlettered community members who once couldn’t study wildlife are now learning more about biodiversity because of such artworks!
