A spiritually uplifting discussion on the monumental earth restoration project, Africa's Great Green Wall, was held at the Brahma Kumaris headquarters in London on Saturday, January 20. Attended by BK Jayanti Kirpalani and Indian High Commissioner Vikram Doraiswami, the event highlighted humanity's shared duty to heal and revitalize the planet. Originally envisioned as an 8000 km tree belt across Africa's arid Sahel region, the Great Green Wall has evolved into a movement regenerating landscapes, biodiversity, food security, and livelihoods for local communities. Truly a planetary-scale collaboration, it demonstrates the power of collective action grounded in spiritual values of oneness, service, and care for Mother Earth. Such green initiatives aligned with yogic agriculture principles kindle hope for restoring balance across the world.
