Godrej & Boyce

In a city where every inch of land is built upon, Godrej Enterprises Group chose to protect a forest instead. For over four decades, they’ve nurtured acres of mangroves in Mumbai, protecting biodiversity, preventing floods, and building a climate-resilient future for generations to come.

Vikhroli today has 16 mangrove species, 208 bird species, and a thriving biodiversity, thanks to the vision of one man.

The spark of inspiration ignited in Shubhi Sachan during her masters’ final project, ‘Traditional Futures’, which dealt with various agricultural waste and their secondary uses.
