“We thought water was forever until the streams began to vanish.” #mountainstomangroves

In Dawakha Village, Bhutan, Rinzin Dorji – a farmer and traditional healer – is helping his community rethink its relationship with water. With support from #MountainsToMangroves and local partners, they’ve mapped surface water, fenced sacred springs, removed invasive plants, and revived ancestral rituals to heal the land. Blending tradition and science, their story shows how conserving water also preserves identity, resilience, and culture. Join us in supporting the #MountainsToMangroves initiative and help scale crucial work like this across the #EasternHimalayas.
