Worli Koliwada Transformation Project

Area : 100 acres

The Heritage Project, an initiative seeded by RPG Foundation, works to revive our rich heritage and culture, to create awareness about its significance and increase focus on its preservation. Through practical and new approaches, they help the masses experience our heritage and its many facets.

SAPA had the opportunity to study the koliwada and its precincts and suggest ways in which the community could benefit through better planning processes.

The suggestions included.

1. Upgrading storm water infrastructure.

2. Open space planning for community engagement

3. Ecological approach towards planning

We took cues from the SDG targets set out by United Nations, for global development adopted in September 2015, set to be achieved by 2030. All countries have agreed to work towards achieving these goals. Through our interventions, we impact 9 out of the 17 SDG Goals viz. Restarting existing public toilets, Restoring fragile coastal edges, Improving recreational facilities in the community,Improving avifaunalbio-diversity and pollinator habitat,Carbon sequestration due to tree plantation.
