About us

Empowering villages, shaping sustainable futures.

BookForChange (BFC) is a grassroots, non-governmental organization committed to enabling sustainable and inclusive development through community-driven approaches. BFC is a part of the Ecobasket group, working in synergy with like-minded professionals and institutions to design and deliver impactful, ground-level interventions.

Every intervention we design respects the ecosystem and parepares communities for a changing climate.
