Global Recognition for a Report on NGO Project that Preserves Ancient Indian Wisdom
Stockholm, Sweden – September 6, 2023 — In a landmark event celebrating the preservation of India’s rich cultural and intellectual traditions, the Bhaktivedanta Research Center (BRC) officially launched its Impact Report titled “Threads of Knowledge: Preservation of Intangible Cultural Heritage for a Sustainable and Inclusive Planet” at Stockholm University. This beautifully designed and globally relevant report on an NGO project not only highlights the power of Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) but also showcases the collective expertise of BRC, Consultivo, and Slate of Swan.
Crafted as a powerful communication tool for cultural preservation, the BRC Impact Report stands out as an exceptional example of a nonprofit impact report, combining strategic research with masterful storytelling and visual design.
A Spotlight on Cultural Heritage: Why This NGO Impact Report Matters
For millennia, India has been a cradle of wisdom in fields ranging from science and philosophy to literature, medicine, and metaphysics. But this treasure trove of intangible cultural heritage is under threat. Of an estimated 10 million ancient manuscripts, nearly 97% are at risk of being lost.
Recognizing this alarming reality, the Bhaktivedanta Research Center (BRC) has taken up the crucial mission of rescuing, preserving, and disseminating these forgotten texts. Their approach combines traditional knowledge with modern digital technologies—offering not just preservation, but also universal accessibility.
The newly launched BRC Impact Report, therefore, is not just another NGO report—it is a heartfelt, data-backed, and beautifully curated account of how India’s ancient knowledge can guide the path toward a sustainable and inclusive future.
