About Us

Nisarga Foundation

Nisarga is dedicated to the socio-economic empowerment of indigenous and marginalized communities.

Nisarga Foundation is a nonprofit organization established in 1997 in H.D. Kote, Mysuru District, Karnataka. We promote the holistic development of tribal and marginalized communities. We work across various development areas including health and nutrition, education, women empowerment, community development, environment, tribal art and culture, and legal literacy. We also implement various programs in collaboration with government departments and development organizations at taluk and district levels, including Sarva Sikshana Abhiyan (SSA), National Child Labour Project (NCLP), and Integrated Tribal Development Program (ITDP). For us, nurturing indigenous communities goes hand-in-hand with protecting the surrounding nature, by promoting sustainable farming and preserving the local biodiversity.

Addressing malnutrition in tribal children

To address malnutrition amongst tribal communities, N.F. launched the Spirulina supplement Nutrition Programme in 2014, supported by Mission Inde, France. We supplement the “home diet” of the target population with Spirulina nutritional capsules, which helps boost the growth of malnourished children and provides vital nutrients to pregnant women and lactating mothers. Dr Gerry Pais, Mysore, has been guiding and monitoring the SIRULINA programme. The programme has proven to be extremely beneficial in the last seven years and has been appreciated even by CFTRI (The Central Government Food and Research Institute), Mysore.
