RAPID ACTION MODULES

Revival of Heritage TanksIndia is studded with ancient heritage tanks that serve multiple purposes including rainwater harvesting and groundwater recharge while providing vital recreational spaces for the public. Today, many of these are in derelict condition.
Revival of these tanks is an environmental necessity and creates goodwill and ownership in villages and towns. Prerak Trust has executed multiple such projects. |

Rainwater HarvestingWith rapidly declining groundwater levels it is imperative to take action. A well-designed rainwater harvesting system recharges groundwater and creates optimum storage for more water.

LONG-TERM ENGAGEMENTS

Revival of LakesOur team works with both the community and the municipality to design and implement comprehensive lake restoration programs.
Lakes deteriorate due to industrial and domestic pollution or from encroachment. To improve the quality of the lake, we typically employ measures ranging from dredging, clearing drains and relevant engineering techniques. |
TECHNICAL AND SOCIAL ENGINEERING PROJECTS
