Welcome to

The Forward Foundation

The Forward Foundation was founded by a group of like-minded individuals aiming for holistic transformation through active citizen engagement. Leading this movement was the late Sri. Ramesh Sivaram, a key figure in water and lake rejuvenation efforts in Bengaluru. An environmental engineer by profession, Ramesh ji had a brilliant mind and was pivotal in establishing neighborhood citizen groups throughout Bengaluru, encouraging local responsibility for water bodies and civic projects. Ramesh ji passed away on January 26, 2020, but his work and legacy continue to inspire our initiatives.
