On Nature’s Duty
The team of On Nature’s Duty, in collaboration with a Performative Artist, Sanket Petkar, from Mumbai, is geared up with a new project addressing the Human-Wildlife interaction/ conflict pertinent across Uttarakhand.
The concept of the documentary film is the brainchild of the filmmaker Paras. He plans to execute a new method of filming and storytelling to showcase an unbiased image of the perspectives of the various stakeholders of the subject.
Currently, the team is in the phase of research and fundraising attempts. We shall be grateful for any leads or support in this regard.
School of nature
As part of the OND’s project Sanket will be facilitating a visual storytelling workshop in June 2025 for the children associated with School of Nature’s regular programs. This workshop aims to explore the power of visual storytelling as a means of creative expression, communication, and social engagement.
We are two facilitators aiming to reach 40 children through 2 workshops during a span of 10 days. Happy Children’s Library has aided us by extending a contribution of the stationary materials required for the workshop. Feel free to reach out to learn the budget breakdown/ details, or if you would like to cover the individual components of it, we shall be truly grateful. Every penny of your contribution will allow us to extend this learning to one more child.
Aid Green Life Conservancy with funding resources for the workshop.
Cost of the Workshop per child- 2425/-
saga
After the release of the second documentary short film, Naach toh Jaane Aangan Tedha, the project has been on hold due to funding constraints.
We shall attempt to take some time to edit the rest of the shot footage into small documentary archives during the first quarter of 2025.
However, the possibility of continuing the project or extending it as an opportunity for more youth depends on the fund inflow for the project in particular.
