By 2030 India's water demand is supposed to be twice available supply and with many cities having faced major water shortages in the country, the situation looks grim. In this informative talk, Mr. Ravindra Desai talks about the Art of Living River Rejuvenation project and how it has helped save many water bodies through sustainable practices and holistic ecological actions. This has addressed the problem of scarcity of water in some areas of India while also employing local workers. He also gives some actionable insights to the audience on what they can do to contribute to the welfare of their local water bodies. Ravindra Desai has two decades of experience in the Information Technology industry specialized in the Retail Banking and Financial Services area. .

He has been an Art of Living teacher. He has conducted various courses in Prisons and also worked extensively in rural areas on improving the rural economy (Doubling Farmers Income). He also specializes in understanding the market needs and creating business models for the effective marketing of the farmers’ produce. He has created the “Sri Sri Organic Farm Producers Organization” at Gadag, Karnataka which is a very successful venture now.

He has created apps that completely digitize the Supply Chain and Point Of Sale for farmers and integrated with IoT devices for meaningful and needed holistic integration. He now handles all Government and Corporate Relations with regard to River Projects in Art of Living and manages the GIS Lab and IT team to provide technical support for all the River Projects.
