The Research Arm for M/s Prabhakar B. Bhagwat, Landscape Environment Advancement Foundation was established in 2007. In the nearly 20 years, it has continued to further investigations in the fields of plant material, landscape design, and environmental sustainability. The Foundation continues to expand its scope of work, and areas that it engages with – urbanity, art, public parks and public spaces, history, and examining ideas of community and development, amongst others - becoming one of the few organisations in the country shaping critical thinking, observation, and documentation in these fields.
All projects that LEAF undertakes - irrespective of format and intended outcomes work on a few core principles
The research that the foundation undertakes, and the data that is generated as a result cannot function in silos; it must be primary, and something that can be interpreted on the ground.
Data and documentation must be freely accessible to everyone - enhancing its ability to inform the choices that we make.
Collaboration is key to any process that is undertaken.
LEAF has always been, and continues to be unwavering in its belief that research and data must guide how we navigate the world that we occupy.
