Who We Are
At the edge of India’s northernmost frontier, where snow-capped mountains meet fragile ecosystems, Navikru Eco Foundation was born out of a simple yet urgent need: to empower communities to live in harmony with their environment.
We are a Section-8 not-for-profit organization working across Ladakh with schools, women, youth, and rural communities. Our mission is grounded in a belief that meaningful environmental action must come from within, from those who live closest to the land and feel its changing rhythms every day.
Our Mission
To inspire and empower through education, advocacy, and action that promote sustainable living. We collaborate with stakeholders to identify root causes and implement meaningful grassroots solutions that foster environmental stewardship for a healthier, more resilient future.
Our Services
Since inception, we have walked alongside communities, not ahead of them. Our programs are built around local strengths, grounded in education, and guided by the belief that small, context-specific solutions can ripple into larger systems of change.
Our Work
From transforming isolated schools into zero-waste learning hubs to building solar-heated classrooms in -30°C winters, our work is shaped by resilience, participation, and a long-term vision for sustainability
Something Special for Us
In September 2022, 22 students from eight Leh district schools embarked on a six-day birding journey to Hanley, Puga, Tsokar, Chuchot, and Shey, led by expert birding guide Padma Gyalpo. Ladakh’s unique terrain hosts a diverse array of migratory birds, and September provided an ideal window for this adventure.During the excursion, students identified over 40 bird species, creating a truly memorable and educational experience.
As a creative extension, students were encouraged to sketch the observed birds. Now, Navikru proudly presents the ‘Birds of Ladakh By Students of Ladakh’ booklet, showcasing their artistic talents and contributions. Explore the rich avian world through the eyes and sketches of Ladakh’s budding naturalists.
