The MAEE programme (Moving Ahead in Environment Education) operates in Uttarakhand, connecting Van Gujjar children with the biodiversity of their local environment through hands-on, experiential learning.
Working with partners like Nature Conservation Foundation and Titli Trust, the programme builds a genuine sense of ecological responsibility in children and youth through field-based activities that are both fun and educational.













Children identify bird species by sounds, colours, and features with experienced nature guides in nearby forests.
A week-long programme on moth ecology, life cycles, and habitats — ending with a film screening.
Forest explorations with trained facilitators covering biodiversity, conservation, and ecosystems.
Children collect local ecological data, contributing to community science projects with real impact.
