THE OTHER KOHINOORS PROJECT

Following are the steps of the Other Kohinoors Project Plan:
-
Screening of Film: We have put in place a roster of screenings of the film at diverse city spaces.
-
Accompanying Dialogue: Each screening will be accompanied by a speaker / panel to raise dialogue about the rocks of the city, their value to ecological health, lung space and water resources of the city and the pride of place of the rocks in the city's culture.
-
Nomination for Follow up: Each screening space will nominate a member to follow up in the matter. This will create a larger pro-active group of persons who understand the importance of preserving the geoheritage of the city of Hyderabad alongside sensibly planned development.
-
Interactive Workshops: The Project will follow up in conducting interactive workshops with this larger group, in cooperation with Society to Save Rocks. The workshops will focus on knowledge building, the consequences of environmental degradation, attitude change, skill development, creative expression and participation via positive action. Creativity, experiential learning and problem solving activities will form part of the workshop method.
-
Goals: The goal will be to put in place actionable ideas to further save the rocks and allied geoheritage of Hyderabad.
-
Impact Assessment: We will create benchmarks to accomplish the strategies along a timeline and assess the strategies as we implement them.
