Humankind is facing the combined consequences of climate change, biodiversity loss, and multiple forms of malnutrition. Even though we rarely get to know them, there are many stories of unsung heroes facing these challenges in their communities.

This video is part of a collaboration with camelid-keeping communities from around the world preparing their own video stories about local heroes fighting climate change, biodiversity loss and malnutrition, and in celebration of the International Year of Camelids 2024.

In this video, the founders of Camel Charisma narrate about the efforts that people in Rajasthan have had to undertake to save the dromedary camels, and in turn, be able to develop livelihoods, preserve food security and improve nutrition from camel milk.
