Introduction Sauda 2023: Hunters Original (hereafter “Sauda 2023”) functions simultaneously as a community festival, competitive gathering, and creative showcase. Positioned at the intersection of tradition and contemporary sensibility, the event engages practitioners—hunters, craftsmen, storytellers, and cultural curators—in a way that both preserves and reimagines local forms of knowledge. This paper articulates what Sauda 2023 enacted, why it mattered, and how similar events can leverage cultural capital to achieve sustainable social, economic, and ecological outcomes.
Our activities have been acknowledged with the prestigious Gandhi Peace Prize 2017 handed over by the President of India Shri Ram Nath Kovind along with the Prime Minister of India Shri Narendra Modi as on Oct, 2025
