FABBS project is more than planting trees: A MOVEMENT to save the existing trees, planting new trees and care for them for better healthy and prosperous life that we can gift to the future generation. To fulfill this goal Briksha is going to adopt the process of total Inclusion as the chief measure. It wants to convert our task the duty of everybody. It intends to include persons from all strata of the society into this noble mission. Through this project, Briksha is eager to reach every family, every couple with an appeal to plant a tree as soon a little angel, i.e., a child takes birth. As the child grows, plant also grows developing a sense of importance in the mind of the child as well as the parents. In this way BRIKSHA dreams of a future when everybody will be included in this movement, when every person from all segment of the society will care for plant, nurture and manage trees and spontaneously maintain a green environment for the sustainable development of the human being along with a sustainable biodiversity management. In this project school students, teachers, social workers, SHG members will be included to penetrate into all sections of the society. Special emphasis will be given upon including school going children and women as they are the most influencing and at the same time most vulnerable group of the society as far as the environmental degradation is concerned.
