you from mumbai in india over the next thirty minutes how the indigenous scout movement doesn't mean minting their means of livelihood. the one that brought about the safe door in india. and fallen from the earth is in the building safe open spaces for women with the help of detail. but first do a study of reading their mission and who traditionally faster than this across the board a struggling to make ends meet it's not any different for those of budget office got the community to live so what the camels provide them with milk transportation and the ability but the increased. they get to nifty is diminishing the hood those are now looking at sustainable long term that is to preserve their culture and more importantly their livelihood.

this region is india's largest solid plane and home of the cut i am of the then name cut i mean saw it in goods at the these garments out a special breed that has successfully about that transitional areas of vegetation mangroves and grasslands their diet includes various plants shrubs and mongrel but if they don't eat one long these animals get sick and can eventually waste away. the heart is in the catch dejan who have been living with the camels for generations are struggling nowadays to find to provide food for the common. good man goes for much closer to a certain use a tick tick a moose or to greece and be back within an hour and there were many

a lot of that on about thirty on the mega about right now we need to go six to seven kilometers deeper into the desert to look for grazing ground try to buy the united i'm going to eat out of now with or so supplement on that i don't want to sort for direction and processing storing or to my groves and. sort of what am i going to get there that are going. to that i was going to do to. the hobby as the heart is out called out traditional pastoralist to live on the camels using them for transport or by selling them a. buck today this livelihood is threatened the once thriving mongrel forests are fast disappearing giving way to salt dansko big manufacturers. in two thousand and eleven with the help of a local ngo the camel herders all get themselves into the kutch who want. to turn to fight for their rights over the years they have filed. in the national dream

tribunal a special court that deals with gazers related to and via mental issues to disallow saltman of factual errors from operating in the region and ensure better implementation of the conservation plan of the highly tretton cut eight. in two thousand and thirteen together with the ngo they came up with an idea to secure their livelihood. for years they only use camel wool for their own needs to make seed rests while riding camels are bags for their belongings digging this practice beyond the image a community could not only give them a new more of livelihood but also help guns are the carrier. is a matter of pride work. because i remember in relief. for this one doesn't require any sort of. let a lot of chemical dying process that is already a winnable in the affair and there is

a possibility of getting really beautiful product out of. this one who has. the ngo coming here has been helping the herders of catch to set up an assembly line process the camels are sheared once a year just before the region's harsh summer season a curry camel produces about three hundred grams to five kilograms of oil per year depending on its age that's enough to provide a viable source of income to the camel herders. the women are spending the shared one in three on the whole community is involved in the processing of shearing the wool spinning began and leaving the plot. traditional rivers like teams you behind lanka are also benefiting from the use of

camel wool as a third generation riva he sees immense value in a living with this wool instead of sheeple for example. our income had jeans now we get mowed. we get our money on time. proved alongside technique since we have come together to figure out has better market value and how it can benefit us. to do there are only six thousand carry camels in the country but with the camel herders taking a big step towards reinventing their traditional craft and fighting against the father spread of the salt industry a sustainable future for both the gammas and the herders might be possible.

camels are all the ships of the desert but what exactly makes them indispensable to the ecosystem let's find out. often known as the ship of the desert camels have a unique set of genetic features that allows them to adapt to the harshest ecosystems. not only are the extremely important to desert ecosystems they also are indispensable to human settlements in the wild. so what makes camels invaluable to the desert. firstly the role they play in the habitat as camels often drink brackish water or indeed salty plants they help spread salt and nutrients over the landscape through their fecal processes. they're also agents of sea dispersal after spending some time traversing a camel's digestive system seeds of certain desert plans like acacia cave in and

prosperous have a better chance of germinating further away from their pound plant this aids the spread of shrubbery. moreover because camels consume plants not targeted by other grazers including several harsh pest weeds they help eliminate flora which may haunt scrub growth or be fatal to other desert wildlife. as herbivores their presence in the ecosystem also means more food for predators and scavengers. but also human life in the desert would be unimaginable without the camel. domesticated over three thousand five hundred years ago camels have traditionally been a means of transporting goods with two chose and leathery pads under their hooves camels are able to move without sinking into sand at speeds of up to sixty kilometers per hour desert civilisations rely on camels for their meat milk and fur . camel milk doesn't curdle and has a higher content of vitamin c.

fat and protein than cow's milk it's an important nutrient source the camel hump rich in fat is a delicacy for several nomadic tribes around the world. camel lulu's used to make coats and warm jackets while camel hide can be fashioned into sandals and veils to carry water. the bedouins of africa have been known to use camel urine as a hair wash to protect it from nets and to keep it a reddish hue some even drink beer and as medicine for certain diseases. dry odorless camel dung is used both as fuel and organic manure capable of living for days without food through sandstorms and harsh desert winter nights camels are the ultimate desert companions extremely low maintenance and adaptive. shifting focus now a lack of access to sanitation is a problem in india forty percent of indians still deficit in the forty years ago

when they started sort of international to tackle this problem hand in hand with the local government the organization has been over nine thousand community toilets across the country. wherever he goes he attracts a crowd across india he simply known as the toilet man bin dishwasher is visiting the dam poor a village close to the capital delhi the sixty seven year old comes from a wealthy family as a child he was disturbed by the fact that his family servants had to put up with poor sanitary conditions he was determined to change things in me down put his n.g.o.s through lab international is building a toilet for every family in this village free of charge many other places have already benefited. who. wrote. the memo well.

you know your one point five billion dollars. the toilets can be built locally using locally sourced materials like bricks stones burnt clay or wood in neighboring the roar of the work is already complete every house has its own composting toilets where human waste is turned into fertilizer it's transform the lives of villages like toilets have great benefits especially for an old man of eighty two years like me it was very difficult to go across the road to defra katyn open it was very dangerous now i can go to the toilet in my own home. that's become there are problems. and it's made life much better for women to what is on the vanguard of the it was difficult to find

a safe place to go. there were men around so it was uncomfortable for me. i used to wait for them to leave so that i could deficit in the open. up. more people in india relieve themselves outdoors than in any other country that's because of the lack of toilets and sanitary facilities politicians have repeatedly promised to improve the situation but much still has to be done. public awareness is at least on the rise thanks also in part to bin dishwasher patek his ngo co financed a toilet museum in delhi here visitors learn for example that long ago things in india used to be better. people want to think twilit two thousand five hundred b.c. in india for power than five hundred years ago from to be people are going in opposite in two thousand and nineteen in india you know there are

a whole many creative there are so many schools in villages that are not blighted. over the years been dishwasher patent has also constructed nine thousand public toilets across india. these are popular because they're clean and free of charge and the special thing about them is that they're hooked up to bio gas plants. here . good. bye gideon. it become boy are you. ready to plug. your five. and that they hope to. get. the toilets can also operate off grades thanks to the bio gas plant many sanitary facilities are now being built according to this principle across

asia and africa. meanwhile back in the damp poor the villages say that they're all looking forward to getting toilets of their own. if they build the toilet for me also it will be a great comfort especially for my children we have a huge problem without a toilet my daughter will feel secure and safe snakes and scorpion bites are quite common well definitely ating out in the open. and in the future these children will find it quite natural to have a restroom of their own. now it's often the women who end up having to be the biggest price for even basic rights for example the right to choose and practice a livelihood the ferocity of the need to movement in india will tell you that the problems women face up to work are wide and deep our reporter spend to do with a budding journalist in our group to find out how she's standing tall and

attempting to break the glass ceiling. curing or put in the time and saloon upon the works for the television news channel. she's one of the few female t.v. reporters in the conservative city of one point five million people. after graduating with a diploma in journalism suddenly struggled to find. one t.v. station refused to hire her another said she could anchor but not work in the field so lonely refused to give up despite the challenges i mean they've never known that . i the men i come across in my work police officers in reporters say things like come and have tea with me spend time with meet me after work i'll drop you home some of them are really forceful it makes me uncomfortable it's good. i block these men's numbers on my phone. because i want to be a reporter not because i want to spend time with men. and yeah

they men had. a guy today she's interviewing a group of men in the park she wants to get their views on women empowerment and gender relations at a time when india's me too movement rages on twitter many female journalists in india's big cities have alleged sexual harassment by senior editors and colleagues and news of those allegations has also filtered down to the men here have strong views about it. oh yes you know these women who are speaking out once oppressed or subjugated the professionally qualified women why did they stay silent for so long and why have they suddenly found the energy to start screaming me to. be as a leader that i don't think men are capable of how to sing women the way it's portrayed in the meta movement the women making these allegations are just seeking publicity they want to be famous you know i get asked about the mayor of a saloon need to have a cement on the job is very real but she says she can't speak of many of those many

theories of the i can't afford to make enemies of the man who had me what's the point of making a complaint if it's police officers themselves have to sing be who do i complain to and who can i complain to about senior reporters. it's a question the to know news. dismissed. really true hans started news twenty four a year ago he says his company has a zero tolerance policy but he still hasn't set up a complaints committee as mandated by india's workplace laws against sexual harassment the decision to hire a female reporter at this channel is rare in arca but john's reasons have little to do with the quality of the bags and only a female reporter ready enough to look for another the was want to see a female reporter they want to see her she talks how she reports they attracted by that nowadays you see that everywhere even if you go to a shop you see that women are pointed at the sealed counters or the checkout it's a way to attract customers for us to having

a female reporter is about increasing our viewership and our ratings. for families and small towns like our girl there's an easy way to deal with the me two accounts stay at home in this conservative neighborhood few women work outside their homes so long as parents come from a village in north india with girls are not allowed to wear jeans on phones laugh loudly or even speak with boys saloni has fought hard to get away she now has big dreams saloni wants to get out of our grasp and join a national t.v. network in dating to get better training and work experience. is every part of our city is safe for women a social entrepreneur india is trying to match exactly that cultural i wish her luck is using the data generated through safety audits to indicate to governments n.g.o.s corporations and even common citizens how safe neighborhood is and how many poorly lit and and safe spots it has that's why the top.

an image captured every fifty meters of water city looks like from a female perspective what kind of rebuilding what kind of things do we want. i think violence against women and sexual harassment today is clearly a global problem. in india that i did that i mentioned probably in the male dominated nature of public spaces. crime rates are high in india's inner cities and women and girls are especially vulnerable fears for their personal safety mean women sometimes avoid going to walk or steer to want to get a. safety pin is a person safety are looking to change that it can't just be done such as images of delhi streets at night that show for example if they are busy or empty prelate

served by public transport and so on. by region in still improve the access and the rights of women and girls to accept all opportunities in four things around the world and technology from me is an enabler in that safe haven of the technology which helps to collect data that allows both women and girls to move more freely in the city at the same time it provides data to key stakeholders at the city governments to make the changes. a long time and so i talk to best companies for not was motivated in part by the two thousand turns deadly can lead to peace in a bus and in part simply by maternal particularly. in delhi we actually used our data to show the government that there were about seven thousand eight hundred dark spots in the city right the pop patches of the city

were absolutely no life. known used by the city authorities safety bill is expanding it seems to include public toilets and bus stops but cities such as delhi change all the time i've been plans don't always have the time. and money to factor in the safety of girls and women. intrapreneur has developed three apps my safety pin which is partly based on crowd source teton safety pin night takes pictures of the city from very unsafe in track to tell its users friends and family to their location for one thing is that we are very aware data can be misused so we for example in our tracking feature we are very clear that only a woman asked someone to track so nobody can take a decision to track someone so we are very careful that we don't want to become

a stalking up. my motivation my desire is to say that the world changes. safety is changing the world for women and it's been used to improve safety alongside the tracks and in hanoi to strengthen sustainable public transport have been planning by women for women support safer cities. now more of the women role models are beginning to be celebrated by society but this is only a vis a vis bella a board game designed by a polish of the kernel is trying to fortify those efforts even more designed for all ages and genders the game in fast the players about strong women and the ideas they strove for let's look at what went into creating this. bestselling author j.k. rowling artist frida kahlo and tennis star serena williams in the game. they share

the board with twenty five other extraordinary women these include famous i'm not so well known personalities from the past and the present. polish design is because they came up with the idea. with the help of a small team she's been producing the game at her workshop in warsaw since twenty eighteen. the basic idea of. inspire little girls and show them that they can do anything they want with real stories of real women from all the time. it's a game for to play is by asking questions each tries to guess which woman their opponent has chosen the first player to guess correctly when this you ask questions about everything about any information that's going to find on the board so about their accomplishments about their life about where they come from about anything

that you can see there you cannot ask about their looks. or something it's forbidden. she considered the biographies of some four hundred women when designing her game she wanted the final selection to include a variety of cultures eras and occupations. the watercolor portraits were painted but. the polish artist found it challenging to make the women look realistic not idealized and yes immediately recognizable. it's not just the way the painting will look but also the expression the women will have some of them are smiling some of them some are like more. serious. so just deciding which one should look how should look very friendly. john harder to approach for example so that was part of the siding on how exactly

the playing. the first version of who is she is an english. but because we have is already working on french portuguese and spanish versions. along with the board made of birch is also a cheaper cardboard one the designer dreams of making her game available to as many children as possible and not just girls i think that it's important for boys as well to see women as the parents as well because if they don't see them as weak as equal or if if boys don't see girls as equal in the in the competition and never ever it won't work. because else believes the more strong female role models girls have the more they'll try to emulate them who's she is her attempt to show girls that they can do anything. exposing children and young adults to women drool models will luckily the relief of more girls to dream big but also tackled of
