That was the start of the self-learning process at DA, the seed that has grown into TARAgram Yatra. Through growing awareness amongst Indians, we hope to step back from the brink and help our communities build back better."Shrashtant Patara, CEO, Development Alternatives Group, said, "How we address the menace of plastic waste, how we tackle the increasing threats from climate change, and how we promote entrepreneurship that is inclusive and impactful - these are the urgent questions of the times we live in. And it's only through empathy, through getting out of our comfort zones and experiencing life lived by those less fortunate than us, that we will be able to bravely face the challenges of today and build a better future for our children."The TARAgram Yatra programme has been organised by Development Alternatives and is being supported by the Green Economy Coalition, the European Union, and Work4Progress of "la Caxia" Foundation.TARAgram Yatra 2022Under an umbrella theme of 'Co-creating Inclusive and Green Economies', TARAgram Yatra 2022 will be focusing on resource efficiency and circular economies; livelihood security and inclusive entrepreneurship; and climate resilience and ecosystem restoration.
