Climate Change is Rewriting the Rules


Communities across India have historically developed their own coping mechanisms to deal with disasters. However changing climate patterns are making risks increasingly unpredictable.


Drought-prone regions are experiencing floods. Flood-prone areas face new extremes. Years of progress in education, livelihoods, agriculture, healthcare, and local economies can be disrupted in a matter of days.


Saarathi exists to help communities anticipate, adapt and recover while protecting the development gains they have worked hard to achieve.
