Integrated development model on urban forestry
With support of the HCL Foundation, Give Me Treest Trust has developed an integrated tree plantation site, which is powered by community and volunteers in Sorkha five years back. Known as HaritUpvan, it showcases an integrated development model on urban forestry to the entire state and country. The HaritUpvan has been developed as an institutional model for successful environmental programs. Some of the activities that are conducted here are mass afforestation and mass scale community engagement, citizen enrolment, green skills workshops, green skills for women and children, community ownership and leadership. Communications and education for awareness among citizens of the city and students from schools and colleges, government organizations etc. are also being carried out in a big way
