K Abhishek

Abhishek is a civil engineer turned permaculturist who practises natural building, permaculture design and landscape restoration. He has researched forest ecologies and designed projects to deal with invasive alien plant species, especially Lantana Camara. He has built and managed local teams for wildlife conservation and forest restoration. He has experience in project design, project evaluation and monitoring, developing and executing workshop formats, team management and accounting. He finds peace amidst nature and is working towards adopting a lifestyle that harms less, and nourishes more.

In my past projects, me and my team have focussed on natural regeneration of the forest, assisting it by planting native tree species from time to time. Tree species were chosen based on the existing forest ecology, field guides, and with the help of local and SFRI forest nurseries and the indigenous knowledge of the local communities.
