Fellowship film title: Reviving Kutch - वागड़ की रजत बूंदे
This film explores the impact of climate change on the lives of the Kutch community and how they have adapted by conserving rainwater, a rare guest in their region. The Samerth Charitable Trust has been instrumental in reviving livelihoods through multifaceted initiatives aimed at addressing water scarcity. The trust's efforts have led to the rejuvenation of 329 ponds, 139 wells, and 39 check dams, along with the construction of 309 rainwater harvesting structures and storage tanks. These measures have significantly reduced migration and increased household incomes, showcasing remarkable progress in water conservation and livelihood improvement in Kutch.
