New Delhi, Dhanbad, Bokaro
On June 5, Asar’s Gender and Climate Community marked World Environment Day with powerful, women-led initiatives across India, highlighting the intersection of climate justice and women’s leadership.
In Delhi, youth groups supported by Cornerstone Knowledge Builders painted wall murals on household air pollution, promoting the use of clean cooking fuels in areas like Kanchan Kunj.
In Dhanbad, Bokaro, and Lohardaga (Jharkhand), Paryavaran Sakhis, SHG members, and ASHA workers—supported by Deshaj Abhikram and Hope—led awareness walks and discussions on air pollution and cooking fuel practices.
In Maharashtra, women from Swayam Shikshan Prayog (SSP) continued to champion climate-resilient farming, supporting families in drought-hit regions.
