Dilip Patil

A native of Bidar presently invested in establishing Agro Forest and a local community library, I have been an integral team member of LLNaF and Team YUVAA. While I was aware of the work that Team YUVAA was engaged with since 2013, I formally got involved with the team in 2016 when I returned back to Bidar from Bengaluru after rediscovering my love for the City. I have been engaging with the network as a research associate, field coordinator, mentor, and learner. Community Histories and Practices, Organic Farming, Police History, Local History, Bawdi, Kankas, Bhooteru, and Osman Gunj Market are some of the micro-contexts I have been engaging with. I can be found listening to Music or digging for more information to stay updated on agricultural and horticultural practices when free.
