In accordance to the tribal way of life, Kedi promotes "Harmony with Nature" by incorporating
solar steam cooking systems, solar power generation, rain water harvesting, preparing
natural fertilizers and pesticides, bore-well recharge and plans to add bio-gas
plant and grey water recycling, which are completely managed and maintained by the
learners.

and acquire interpersonal skills. They learn about peaceful social collaboration
for harmonious functioning and achieving goals.
