GUWAHATI BIOBLITZ 2025 | Celebrating Curiosity, Observation & Biodiversity
What happens when young minds are given the freedom to explore, observe and document nature?
The answer is inspiring!
The Concluding Programme of Guwahati BioBlitz 2025 was held on 22 September 2026 at Maharishi Vidya Mandir III, Barsajai, Guwahati—celebrating a remarkable journey of student-led biodiversity exploration and citizen science.
Organised by Assam Climate Change Management Society (ACCMS), Environment, Forest & Climate Change Department, Government of Assam, in collaboration with Help Earth, Guwahati, the 30-day initiative encouraged students to discover and document biodiversity in and around their everyday surroundings.
📊 The numbers tell the story:
🔎 5,731 biodiversity observations
🌱 1,430 species documented
👩‍🔬 47 student observers
🏫 7 participating schools across Guwahati
From plants and insects to birds, reptiles and mammals, the BioBlitz revealed the extraordinary biodiversity that exists within our urban landscape.
Dr. Jayaditya Purkayastha, Help Earth, who spoke about biodiversity mapping, establishing baselines for long-term monitoring, and the vision of schools becoming “living classrooms” for continuous biodiversity learning.
Dr. Amlan Kumar Dey, Principal, Maharishi Vidya Mandir III, highlighted the importance of connecting young people with nature through direct observation and participation.
Dr. Rizwan Uz Zaman, ACCMS, emphasised the importance of engaging young people in biodiversity documentation and the potential to expand BioBlitz into a sustained approach to biodiversity monitoring and environmental awareness. He emphasised the role of schools, colleges and universities can document local biodiversity and climate which will help all the stakeholders to plan, programmes, and policies in future.

The Assam Climate Change Management Society (ACCMS), under the Environment, Forest & Climate Change Department, Government of Assam, successfully hosted the State-Level Celebration of World Ozone Day 2026 under the theme “Global Action for a Cooler Planet” on 16th September 2026 at the Assam Administrative Staff College, Jawahar Nagar, Khanapara, Guwahati.

Marking a decisive step for the State, the event featured the historic launch of the Assam Cooling Action Plan (ACAP) by the chief guest of the event Shri Jayanta Mallabaruah, Hon'ble Minister, Environment, Forest and Climate Change Department. The ACAP serves as a comprehensive roadmap to manage growing energy and cooling needs through energy-efficient and climate friendly cooling across Buildings, Industry, Cold Chain, and Transport sectors.

Complementing the launch, a high-level Panel Discussion chaired by Dr. Satyendra Singh, IFS (CEO, ACCMS) and moderated by Ms. Sumedha Malaviya (WRI India) brought together distinguished experts from government, academia, and technical sectors to deliberate on sustaining long-term cooling action across the State.

As the world celebrates the achievements of the Montreal Protocol and a decade of the Kigali Amendment, Assam’s commitment to sustainable cooling reflects the State’s proactive approach towards addressing rising cooling demand, reducing emissions and enhancing climate resilience.

Prepared by ACCMS, Environment, Forest & Climate Change Department, Government of Assam with technical support from WRI India, the Assam Cooling Action Plan is envisioned as a collaborative roadmap to guide coordinated action across departments and stakeholders for a cooler, greener and more resilient Assam.
