Water often enters public conversation only in moments of crisis, floods or droughts. These extremes shape how we think and feel about water.
However, most water stories unfold in the in-between through everyday rhythms, shifts, and gradual changes that rarely make headlines. It is here that water quietly shapes lives, livelihoods, and landscapes.
Over the past year, the India Water Portal has followed these in-between realities through storytellers in different parts of the country capturing water as it is lived, long before it becomes just a statistic through our Regional Storytelling Fellowship.
We now bring these stories together in Bengaluru on 29th March through Water & Us: Stories Between the Extremes.
Join us for an exhibition and a conversation on how we can listen more closely to the many ways water shapes our world. It’s free and open to all.
Programme: 11:30 AM - 6:30 PM
Stories Exhibition: 4:00 PM onwards:
Keynote Address by Harini Nagendra, Director, School of Climate Change and Sustainability, Azim Premji University
