Society & Culture
Bakul Foundation is a movement for volunteerism in India, that started with the State of Odisha. It is not just an organisation, it is an idea. An idea, that anything can happen when individuals come together for a common cause. It is also a movement to spread volunteerism like wild fire, Bakul inspires selfless work in the field of Education, Environment, Arts and Volunteerism.
After 17yrs of being a Bakul Foundation Volunteer myself, it felt apt that we begin our Climate Network with An Ode to Bakul and Dedi Loku, The Tree Man. Come find out what The Bakul Way of doing things mean; a ride through the last decade and more of creative campaigns using art & culture as tools to bring in transformation through innovative solutions, a peoples' movement from the very grassroots!
