The Story of OK! North East
WHO IS OK! NORTH EAST?
Ok, so, why 'who is' and not 'what is'? The team behind OK! North East believes that it is not a company but a child who is going to build a world of sustainability, a world of helping hands and smiling faces and a world of peace and tranquility. The idea started sometime in 2008 to preserve the nature and the age old traditions of North-East India as well as helping backpackers and tourists travel across North-east like a local. With that in mind, the team started the first page on Facebook dedicated to the North-eastern region of India. The page kept on giving information about the culture, people and the amazing facts of the North-east. In 2017, few like minded people, who left their corporate jobs, joined hands to form a group which dedicatedly nurtured the ideologies of the child called OK! North East.
HOW DID THE TEAM WORK?
The team travelled extensively through different states of the North-east to understand the biodiversity, ecosystem, as well as different culture and behavior of each place. They connected with the farmers, potters, hunters other people with different occupations and made them aware of preserving the nature and cleanliness. The team also taught them about agrotourism and the benefits of keeping the nature as it is while finding other sources of income which would eventually be more beneficial than destroying the nature for money. Soon, the team started workng on different projects which involved homestays, farm-stays and campsites in not-very-well-known to unexplored, untouched places.
