Our Projects – Building Harmony Between People and Planet
At the Tohri Foundation, every project is rooted in a simple belief — that meaningful change begins with empathy, awareness, and collective action. Founded by Prof. Anandajit Goswami, the Foundation works across interconnected domains of sustainability, mental health, education, culture, and equity. Each initiative inspires a future where people and the planet thrive together.
WOODEN DOLLS- AT BURDWAN
Natungram in Bardhaman is known all over for the traditional Wooden Dolls. Owl sculptures from Natungram in Bardhaman district shares the iconic status in representing Bengal’s handicraft. Besides owls, Krishna-Radha, king and queen dolls are traditionally made. The traditional designs based on culture and mythology, the richness of ideas, the brilliant combination of pure simplicity and glamour combined with the master craftsmanship of the crafts persons, result in an amazing work of art.
