In the bustling suburb of Gurugram, 'I Am Gurgaon' transformed a 380-acre wasteland, once a mining site, into a thriving urban forest. This park now boasts over 90,000 trees and 160 bird species, acting as a green barrier for Delhi-NCR. Despite challenges, including a proposed highway that would have destroyed the park, the group's determination prevailed. Recently, the park was recognized as India's first OECM site, marking it as an international biodiversity hotspot.
