Guwahati: A group of 27 enthusiastic youths recently participated in a nature walk at the Garbhanga Reserve Forest in Assam’s Kamrup Metropolitan District, immersing themselves in the region’s rich biodiversity and ecological significance.

The event was organised by Aaranyak, a leading biodiversity conservation organization, under its WeForNature programme.

The initiative was carried out in collaboration with the Kamrup East Division of the Assam Forest Department and the Eco Club of Girijananda Chowdhury University, with support from Zeiss India.

Garbhanga Reserve Forest is a vital green lung for the urban biodiversity of Kamrup Metro District, hosting a remarkable array of species.

It is home to over 300 plant species, 36 mammals, 219 birds, 53 amphibians and reptiles, 168 butterflies, and 15 species of spiders.

The event aimed to emphasise the importance of conserving and sustainably managing such biodiverse areas to maintain ecological balance and support urban wildlife.

Engaging young people in conservation activities is seen as crucial in raising awareness about biodiversity and environmental stewardship.

“Through its WeForNature programme, Aaranyak is dedicated to fostering a sense of belonging and connection among young people,” the organization stated in a press release.
