Disha Annappa Ravi (born 1998, Bangalore)[2] is an Indian youth climate change activist and a founder of Fridays For Future India.[1] Her arrest on 13 February 2021 for an alleged involvement with an online toolkit related to Greta Thunberg and the 2020–2021 Indian farmers' protests gained international attention.[3][4] The Indian government alleged that the toolkit, a standard social justice communications and organizing document,[5] providing a list of ways to support the farmers' protests,[6] fomented unrest and a form of sedition.[7][8] The arrest was widely criticized both within India, and internationally.[2]
