In addition, the difficulties of providing sufficient jobs in urban areas has led to poverty, expanding slums and social unrest making urban governance a difficult task. This is especially true of the developing world and more so for the two rapidly developing countries, China and India. At present, more than half of the world’s population is living in small towns and cities with about half a million population. By 2050, the world population is projected to be 9.2 billion, of which 6.7 billion or 73% are estimated to live in urban areas. In India, in the last fifty years while the overall population has increased by two-and-a-half times, the urban population has grown nearly five times. This high rate of urban population growth is a cause of concern among India’s urban and town planners. While on the one hand growth of cities is important, since they can act as catalysts for economic and social growth, the pace of urbanization has been so rapid, that it has limited the capacity of authorities to provide the services and infrastructure required for sustainable urban development. This has resulted in improper planned growth where our urban centres have mostly been converted in to built-up areas with little or no green coverage, turning them into urban heat islands which contribute significantly to climate change. As a result ‘Urban Environment Management’ has become one of the most urgent and challenging tasks for urban planners and urban policy makers in India. It becomes very important that innovative tools and techniques for urban environment management are developed and utilized to make urban development sustainable. In this context I am very happy that the Kerala Environment Congress is being organized by the Centre for Environment and Development in association with the Energy Management Centre, Kerala. I have been informed that the 12th KEC which is being held on November 28th and 29th, 2016 in Thiruvananthapuram aims at highlighting the importance of urban environment management required for the sustainable development of our urban areas. It is indeed commendable that the Centre for Environment and Development which has been in the forefront of linking science, technology and knowledge systems for environmentally sustainable development is taking this important initiative. The Proceedings Volume which contains detailed reviews and papers by eminent experts in the concerned fields focusing on ‘Urban Environment Management’, will be very useful in strengthening programs and activities for integrating science, technology and knowledge systems for the development of the urban areas of our country. The inputs from the participants on various aspects including science and technology, societal roles in framing policies and programs leading to urban planning, urban development and urban environment management, will surely offer deeper insights into the important issues and available options for consideration within the country as well as in the State of Kerala. Dr. Suresh Das KERALA ENVIRONMENT CONGRESS 2016 The Centre for Environment and Development(CED) is an autonomous R&D, Consultancy and Training institution recognized as a Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation(SIRO) by Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, Government of India. CED organized the Indian Environment Congress in 2004 and the success of this program and the request from several corners prompted us to initiate the Kerala Environment Congress (KEC) in 2005 with special focus to Kerala. CED has till date completed eleven Congresses on various focal themes. CED, established in 1993 at Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala is now being expanded its coverage into twelve states in the country and has wide network and collaboration with many state, national and international agencies.

During the last 23 years, CED has completed nearly 120 research, consultancy and training projects supported by different national and international agencies like the World Bank, UNDP, JICA, ADB, RNE, IDRC, Ministry of Urban Development, Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change,etc and many State governments agencies The KEC was started with the objective of creating a platform for bringing together scientists and technologists,policy-decision makers, development managers and research students for sharing of knowledge, expertise and experience in subjects of high relevance to the sustainable development of the country. All the eleven Congresses had been organized on different focal themes which had high relevance Kerala Environment Congress 2016 Thiruvananthapuram in the environment conservation and management as well as the development of the society.

    Dairying in Malabar: a Venture of the Landowning Based on Women's Work?

    Ind. Jn. ofAgri. Econ. Vol.57, No.4, Oct-Dec. 2002 Dairying in Malabar: A Venture of the Landowning based on Women's Work? D. Narayana* INTRODUCTION India occupies the second place in the production of milk in the world. The strategy adopted to achieve such remarkable growth in milk production has been a replication of the `Anand pattern' of co-operative dairying in other parts of India using the proceeds of European Economic Commission (EEC) dairy surpluses donated to India under the Operation Flood (OF) programme. The Indian dairy co- operative strategy has, however, proved to be fiercely controversial. One of the major criticisms of the strategy has been that too much focus on transforming the production and marketing technology along western lines has led to a situation where the policy 'took care of the dairy animal but not the human beings who own the animal'. Some dairy unions have come forward to set up foundations and trusts to address the development problems of milk producers. The well-known ones are, The Thribhuvandas Foundation' at Anand, Visaka Medical, Educational and Welfare Trust, and Varana Co-operative Society. They mainly focus on health and educational needs of milk producers and employees. These pioneering efforts have inspired other milk unions. The Malabar Regional Co-operative Milk Producers' Union (MRCMPU)2 has recently registered a welfare trust named, Malabar Rural Development Foundation (MRDF). The mission objective of MRDF is to make a sustainable improvement in the quality of life of dairy farmers by undertaking specific interventions. The planning of interventions for the welfare of dairy farmers in the Malabar region by MRDF called for an understanding of them in the larger social context.

  • Minority Media and Community Agenda Setting a Study on Muslim Press in Kerala

    Minority Media and Community Agenda Setting a Study on Muslim Press in Kerala

    Minority Media and Community Agenda Setting A Study On Muslim Press In Kerala Muhammadali Nelliyullathil, Ph.D. Dean, Faculty of Journalism and Head, Dept. of Mass Communication University of Calicut, Kerala India Abstract Unlike their counterparts elsewhere in the country, Muslim newspapers in Kerala are highly professional in staffing, payment, and news management and production technology and they enjoy 35 percent of the newspaper readership in Kerala. They are published in Malayalam when Indian Muslim Press outside Kerala concentrates on Urdu journalism. And, most of these newspapers have a promising newsroom diversity employing Muslim and non-Muslim women, Dalits and professionals from minority and majority religions. However, how effective are these newspapers in forming public opinion among community members and setting agendas for community issues in public sphere? The study, which is centered on this fundamental question and based on the conceptual framework of agenda setting theory and functional perspective of minority media, examines the role of Muslim newspapers in Kerala in forming a politically vibrant, progress oriented, Muslim community in Kerala, bringing a collective Muslim public opinion into being, Influencing non-Muslim media programming on Muslim issues and influencing the policy agenda of the Government on Muslim issues. The results provide empirical evidences to support the fact that news selection and presentation preferences and strategies of Muslim newspapers in Kerala are in line with Muslim communities’ news consumption pattern and related dynamics. Similarly, Muslim public’s perception of community issues are formed in accordance with the news framing and priming by Muslim newspapers in Kerala. The findings trigger more justifications for micro level analysis of the functioning of the Muslim press in Kerala to explore the community variable in agenda setting schema and the significance of minority press in democratic political context.
