    Today we mourn the loss of one of our pillars, Dr. Today we mourn the loss of one of our pillars, Dr. A K Nongkynrih, who we have had the privilege to work closely with for many many years.

Rest in everlasting Peace dearest Dr. Kyrham! You were our pillar, a wonderful mentor, and your passing is not only a loss to our organisations but all our indigenous communities as well.

We at NESFAS will forever be grateful that we have had the opportunity to work closely with such a legendary man and promise to uplift his words of wisdom at all times. 🙏

    Our ongoing project which is funded by the Rural E Our ongoing project which is funded by the Rural Electrification Corporation @reclindia Limited Foundation --No One Shall Be Left Behind  Initiative: Biodiversity for Food, Nutrition and Energy Security for 3000 households in Meghalaya and Nagaland-- was selected as the winner of the 2021 @ifadnews Indigenous Peoples Award for the category ‘’best performing non-IFAD-funded project’’.

Here is our ambitious journey as a young organization that has slowly and steadily over a decade connected with the world by organizing and welcoming the largest gathering of Indigenous peoples to the Northeast of India and then acted locally to establish the indigenous peoples’ self-driven value system that respects and enhances their traditional livelihoods, occupations, and knowledge.
