We dream of a Resilient Rural India. Being set up in 12.5 acres of land, in the 2nd driest district in India (Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh)

ProtoVillage is the prototype of a “Resilient” rural community built for the villagers, by the villagers.

ProtoVillage is a space for systemic solutions for rural resilience to be

iteratively co-created,
diligently practiced,
comprehensively demonstrated

  • Ecologically sustainable,

  • Socially cohesive and

  • Economically viable

A Resilient community is one in which the inhabitants' practice harmonious interdependence, employ ecologically sustainable means and blend native knowledge systems with contemporary appropriate technology to achieve self-reliance in terms of the 9 basic needs:
