Frauke Quader is a German-born Hyderabadi environmental activist better known for her contribution espousing the cause of saving rock formations[4] in the twin cities[5] of Hyderabad and Secunderabad on the Deccan plateau, especially in promoting the rocks as a heritage[6].

Frauke's interest in saving the rockscapes of Hyderabad along with fellow enthusiasts resulted in the formation of Society to Save Rocks, a registered Society[7] which serves as a platform for many like-minded enthusiasts to gather and find ways and means[4] to protect the rock heritage.[2]
