The sessions created a space for participatory dialogue on climate change, environmental challenges, disaster preparedness, and womenโ€™s rights.
During our visit, the women shared their reflections, stories, and learnings. not just through words, but also through art, songs, and poetry. These creative expressions powerfully captured the groupโ€™s journey of leadership, awareness, and collective action.
Their voices affirmed that resilience is not only about infrastructure or policy, but also about community consciousness, solidarity, and storytelling.
