Objective

Long-Term Ecological Restoration

Youth Talent Development Society (YTDS), in collaboration with Worley, conducted a seedball activity drive aimed at promoting environmental restoration through an innovative and scalable approach. The initiative focused on preparing seedballs that can be deployed in dry and inaccessible areas to support natural vegetation growth.

The Challenge

Restoring Vegetation in Difficult Terrains

Many regions face challenges in plantation due to dry soil, lack of water, and inaccessibility. Traditional planting methods are often not feasible in such conditions. The challenge was to adopt an approach that enables vegetation growth in areas where direct plantation is difficult.

Our Approach

Seedball Preparation Activity

Participants prepared seedballs using soil, compost, and native seeds for large-scale deployment.

Employee Engagement

Worley employees actively participated in hands-on environmental activity.

Sustainable Plantation Method

Seedballs designed to grow naturally when exposed to suitable environmental conditions.

Scalable Impact Approach

Seedballs can be dispersed across large areas, enabling broader ecological impact.
