SLRD–YesEarth marked a key milestone in its mission to foster climate resilience and sustainable development through a meaningful and action-oriented visit to Nagaland in June 2025.
The visit was led by Abhijit Sharma, Mission Director of SLRD–YesEarth, who engaged in pivotal discussions to strengthen shared efforts toward building a greener and more resilient Nagaland. He was joined by Mr. B. Limanuksung Longkumer, State Director, whose presence added momentum to the collaborative spirit of the engagements.
One of the significant highlights of the visit was the delegation’s interaction with Shri Sharingain Longkumer, Hon’ble Speaker of the Nagaland Legislative Assembly. His inspiring commitment to a climate- and disaster-resilient Nagaland underscored the state’s leadership in driving forward-thinking environmental governance.
The team also had the privilege of meeting Smt.

Her vision for enhancing farmer incomes and building resilient rural communities aligns deeply with SLRD’s mission.
