The Delhi landscape is deeply shaped by its relationship with the Yamuna- planning ideologies, and shifting ideas of identity and belonging. This Walk examines how the river has historically influenced settlement patterns, housing, infrastructure, and everyday urban life, and how it continues to shape ecological and social processes in the city.
Participants will explore the intersections of water, urban ecology, and planning, observing how communities along the Yamuna interact with the river and its surroundings.
