A Different Sense of Time 🌿: In B.R. Hills, the Solega community uses natural surroundings and animal calls to measure time. The White-cheeked Barbet's calls mark the day's phases, and bamboo flowering cycles estimate age. Credits: ebird, Mahesha and Vinay

Coexistence Fellows Manikandan and Devaki document the Thudi, a key percussion instrument of the Paniya community. Crafted from White Teak and goat hide, and played with bamboo or cane sticks, it highlights the deep ties between #nature and #culture.

Sit back and immerse yourself into a day in the life of a CoExistence Fellow! Taju and Vivek are documenting folktales and folklore as part of their project. They find it important to engage in community work to understand better how people interact with their surroundings.

A different sense of measuring time: Fellow Ramlal and Vasant share a glimpse of their landscape, where time is measured and work is wrapped up based on the leaves of two plants. 🌿🌱

Join us on 28th Aug at 5pm as Dhee explores how our perceptions of animals as thinking beings shape our relationships with them and how we share space with our 'wild' neighbours.
