About us
Science-backed action for Ladakh.
A Section 8 non-profit company headquartered in Leh, advancing the Sustainable Development Goals through practical action in one of the world’s most fragile high-altitude ecosystems.
Vision & mission
Resilient, net-zero, circular mountain communities.
We envision high-altitude regions of Ladakh and beyond thriving in harmony with nature — guided by local wisdom and strengthened by modern science.
Our mission is to lead transformative change across cold and fragile ecosystems by designing net-zero energy systems, embedding circular economy principles, delivering research-driven consulting, building local capacity and fusing traditional knowledge with modern innovation.
SEEHWA stands for Sustainable Ecology, Energy, HVAC and Water Alliance — the disciplines we believe have to be solved together in a mountain settlement.
How we work
Four ways we move a project forward.
01
Design & implement
Technical design and on-the-ground delivery of energy, water, sanitation and building systems built for cold-arid conditions.
02
Research & advise
Applied research, feasibility work and consulting that gives institutions and partners defensible ground to act on.
03
Build local capacity
Training, education access and skills so systems keep running after a project closes — the part most interventions skip.
04
Bridge knowledge
Fusing traditional Ladakhi practice with modern engineering, rather than replacing one with the other.
