From Rocky Slopes to Regenerative Fiber: How HimGra is Building Climate Resilience in the Himalayas
The HimGra® pilot project in Uttarakhand's Chamoli district transforms degraded, rocky Himalayan slopes into productive land by cultivating a climate-resilient grass for sustainable textiles. Managed by women-led Self-Help Groups (SHGs) and supported by the Dev UK (Uttarakhand) Foundation, the initiative reduces soil erosion and provides diversified income for marginalized communities. The project integrates grassroots innovation with global luxury fashion markets and is undergoing independent impact assessments to validate its carbon and soil regeneration outcomes.
