Tarun Bharat Sangh
India
Tarun Bharat Sangh works with communities in semi-arid Rajasthan, India, restoring traditional water catchment systems to revitalize rural communities and ecosystems. After successfully restoring the water table in Alwar Village in 1985 by rebuilding a disused johad (a crescent-shaped dam to capture rainwater runoff), the organization went on to restore groundwater and forests in more than 750 villages in Rajasthan and beyond.
