Delhi Rising

STAND WITH DELHI

Every summer is hotter than the last. But across Delhi, people are already building the city they deserve. Add your name to a movement turning heat into action.

What people Imagined

– Delhi Resident

I imagine a bus stop with a roof and a water tap. That’s all. That’s enough.

– Delhi Resident

I imagine my street being walkable at noon in May.

– Delhi Resident

I imagine shade as a right, not a luxury.

IMAGINED LOUD. ACTING LOUDER.

The Heat Diaries

Forty households. Twenty from Sunder Nagri, ten from the middle class, ten street vendors. Each one documenting what extreme heat actually does to a body, a budget, and a day. Not statistics. Not projections. Real records, kept by real people, building the case that heat is not an act of nature but a consequence of decisions. And decisions can change.

The Common Space at Sunder Nagri

In one of Delhi’s most heat-exposed neighbourhoods, residents did not wait for a plan. They became one. A community-designed, ecologically built common space, shaped by local knowledge and local need. Shade, rest, water, community. What every neighbourhood deserves. What Sunder Nagri built first.
