    10- Mitigating Water Quality Problems in Bundelkhand - INREM FOUNDATION (i) About INREM Foundation INREM Foundation is a research institution probing societal issues concerning water, public health, agriculture and the environment. The institution develops innovative inter- disciplinary solutions and brings them into the wider domain of practice by participating with communities and government. The goal towards a Fluorosis free India guides INREM's work for the past 10 years from its initial work in Jhabua and now to the rest of the country. In this journey, the organization started small from a community based programme in Jhabua (MP), developed a national network on the issue, known as the Fluoride Knowledge and Action Network (FKAN), and now scaling up through District level people centric platforms, and Technology aided platforms, across the country, on the Fluoride issue. Currently, INREM has presence in 9 fluoride affected districts of 5 states: Rajasthan, MP, Karnataka, Telangana, Odisha and Assam, with a state level partnership in Assam and Rajasthan with the state Water and Sanitation Support Organization (WSSO). It is now supported by the European Union (EU), Azim Premji Philanthropic Initiatives (APPI) Arghyam and UNICEF. These initiatives are now leading INREM closer to its goal of a Fluorosis free India. INREM was constituted in 1994 with support from Winrock International, Ford Foundation and Rockefeller Foundation. It originally started with a need felt by natural resource economists to impact teaching, training and research in their field in India. Team-INREM together, they bring forward a combination of research skills, social work experience and innovative product development approaches. INREM projects are solution-oriented.

  • A Regional Analysis of Food Security in Bundelkhand Region (Uttar Pradesh, India)
    Journal of Geography and Regional Planning Vol. 5(9), pp. 252-262, 4 May, 2012 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/JGRP DOI: 10.5897/JGRP12.023 ISSN 2070-1845 ©2012 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper A regional analysis of food security in Bundelkhand region (Uttar Pradesh, India) Adnan Shakeel*, Ayesha Jamal and Md. Naiyer Zaidy Department of Geography, Aligarh Muslim University Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh, 202002, India. Accepted 3 April, 2012 In the present study the authors have attempted to analyse the condition of food security in the Bundelkhand region of Uttar Pradesh at district level. Bundelkhand region has been chosen as a unit of study because it is one of the poorest regions in comparison with western, central and eastern regions of the state and even after being in close proximity to heartland of green revolution (Punjab, Haryana and Western Uttar Pradesh) the region is still backward in agricultural development in India in general. Agriculture is the mainstay of the economy and mostly dependent on monsoonal rainfall. The Bundelkhand is continuously facing drought since last few years and people are migrating for employment. Thus, there is an urgent need to look after the conditions of food security of the people living in this region. The standard statistical techniques have been used for the analysis of data. The study concludes that the condition of food security is unfavourable. Only one district of Jalaun has shown high food security. Majority of the districts are moderate and low food secure because of low food grain availability, low purchasing power of the people, etc.
