Assam: 64 students visit Pobitora as part of educational trip

Guwahati: Aaranyak, a biodiversity conservation organization, organized an education tour inside Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary on March 28 and 29. The event was attended by 64 students from different high schools. In the midst of nature, this was an effort to rewild.

Activities and games included brain mapping, tree-hugging, landscape observation and expression, leaf album-making, Jeep safaris, and creative leaf collages.

The 64 students who attended the program belonged to six different schools located close to Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary and had grown up in this biodiversity-rich area. However, they didn’t get the opportunity to visit the wildlife sanctuary, Jayanta Kumar Pathak, a senior environment educator at Aaranyak said.
