Arthaastra Students Participate in Great Backyard Bird Count 2026 at Puttenahalli Lake

Bengaluru, 27th February 2026: Students from Reverva, the environment club of Arthaastra - The Economics Forum, actively participated in the Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) 2026 at Puttenahalli Lake. The international citizen-science initiative, coordinated by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the National Audubon Society, engages volunteers worldwide to document bird species over four days.

The Bengaluru event, organised by the Puttenahalli Neighbourhood Lake Improvement Trust, highlighted community-driven urban ecological restoration. Reverva’s participation reflected a commitment to interdisciplinary learning, demonstrating how environmental sustainability, biodiversity, and urban commons intersect with economic study.

Students underwent orientation sessions on bird identification, followed by field observation, systematic counting, and data compilation for submission to the official GBBC platform. Discussions addressed urban biodiversity trends, ecological impacts of infrastructure, and economic implications of environmental degradation.

Over 20 students, guided by faculty coordinators Dr Jennifer Fernandes and Ms Sanchita Saikia and student coordinators Ms Manya Sharma, Ms Anchal Priya, Ms Harshitha Rakesh, Ms Vindhya Shree, and Ms Samiya Assuphatri, developed skills in observation, analysis, teamwork, and community engagement. 

The activity underscored:

  • Urban ecosystems as economic assets
  • Biodiversity as a public good
  • Citizen science as a tool for governance

Participation demonstrated how academic knowledge can be applied to societal and environmental challenges. It strengthened collaboration between Arthaastra and local civil society, reinforced experiential learning, and promoted responsible citizenship.

Reverva’s involvement in GBBC 2026 exemplifies how higher education can integrate environmental stewardship into academic training, ensuring that future economists remain conscious of the ecological foundations of economic systems.

Beyond the Classroom: Languages Students Engage with Jain Heritage

Bengaluru, 23rd February 2026: Students of the Department of Languages (Hindi), JAIN (Deemed-to-be University) recently undertook an educational visit to Shravanabelagola, one of India’s most significant Jain heritage centres.

The visit offered students direct exposure to history, architecture, and epigraphy beyond the classroom setting. The group explored the historic hills of Vindhyagiri Hill and Chandragiri Hill, home to the 57-foot monolithic statue of Bahubali, a landmark of Jain art and devotion.

Through guided observation and academic discussion, students examined early engineering practices that enabled the construction of large-scale stone monuments in the 10th century. They also studied ancient Kannada inscriptions found across the site, analysing their linguistic structure, historical references, and cultural context. This on-site engagement allowed students to understand how language, literature, and history intersect in real-world settings.

The experience encouraged critical inquiry, documentation, and reflective learning. By interacting directly with historical material, students gained insight into how scripts evolve, how cultural narratives are preserved, and how architectural spaces communicate historical meaning.

The visit reflects the university’s focus on experiential learning and interdisciplinary study. By connecting language studies with heritage exploration, the initiative reinforced the importance of cultural literacy and historical awareness in shaping well-rounded scholars.
