Bondvol - A paradigm of dynamic inter-relations

Bondvol lake has a rich biodiversity around it. Communities living in the calapor village are connected to the lake because of the biodiversity and the freshwater for farming and other domestic needs. Due to this, there are many ecologically and occupationally bound common spaces around the lake and in the village . These commons due to urbanization, goverment rules, have lost their essence and their associations with the different communities. In order to rejuvenate the weak associations, the connection between community and the lake needs to be restored.
