About us

As founders of Camp Hornbill and lifelong residents of Kyari village, we’ve witnessed firsthand the impact of unchecked urban development and excessive tourism on our environment. While growing our business, we’ve remained deeply aware of our responsibilities toward preserving our surroundings and supporting our community. We are committed to environmental conservation, promoting responsible tourism, and creating sustainable livelihood opportunities for local people. In 2022, we established Kumaon Maati, a community-owned organization dedicated to protecting the environment and enhancing local livelihoods. Our mission is to conserve nature and live in harmony with it, ensuring a balanced and sustainable future for generations to come.

Our Commitment to Responsible Waste Management

We believe in responsible consumption and proper waste disposal. To support this, we actively participate in initiatives led by Waste Warriors. Our team ensures proper waste segregation, categorizing it for efficient disposal by Waste Warriors. In addition to waste management, we are deeply involved in raising community awareness about responsible waste disposal. Through events and cleanup drives, we work to keep our surroundings clean and protect the environment.

Community Awareness and Living in Harmony with Nature

We are committed to raising awareness among youth, the local community, and other stakeholders about the importance of living in harmony with nature. Through hands-on experiences in the jungle ecosystem, we teach participants about the delicate balance of life in the wild. We believe it’s crucial to spread the message that humans are not the sole inhabitants of this planet; we share it with a vast and interconnected ecosystem. By fostering this understanding, we aim to instill a deeper respect for nature and promote responsible stewardship at every level.”

Empowering Local Communities and Promoting Livelihoods

As members of the same community, we believe in fostering local development. Our primary goal is to create sustainable livelihood opportunities for local people, and we’ve achieved this by employing team members from nearby villages. Today, our team is a balanced mix of both men and women from the community. We are strong advocates for skill development and partner with organizations like Udhyam to enhance local capacity. Additionally, we organize events for village women and collaborate with nonprofits to uplift livelihoods and promote women’s empowerment in the region.
