Turtle Walker Impact Campaign

Turning Storytelling Into Conservation Action.

The Turtle Walker Impact Campaign was born from the award-winning documentary Turtle Walker, which tells the remarkable story of Satish Bhaskar, a pioneering conservationist whose work transformed our understanding of sea turtles in India. While the film celebrates one individual's extraordinary commitment to conservation, the impact campaign extends that legacy beyond the screen and into meaningful action.

At Jnana Foundation, we believe that powerful stories can inspire meaningful change. The Turtle Walker Impact Campaign leverages the film as a catalyst to build awareness, strengthen conservation efforts, and inspire the next generation of environmental stewards. Through impact screenings, educational programs, strategic partnerships, and community engagement initiatives, the campaign creates opportunities for audiences to connect with conservation challenges and become part of the solution.

The campaign has helped foster collaborations between conservation organisations, supported marine protection initiatives, contributed to marine education efforts, and inspired thousands of people through screenings across India and internationally. By connecting storytelling with action, we aim to create lasting benefits for marine ecosystems, coastal communities, and future generations.
