  • 1. Introduction
    1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. History Kasaragod, the northernmost district of Kerala, is endowed with rich natural resources and is noted for its majestic forts, ravishing rivers, hills, green valleys and beautiful beaches. The rich and varied cultural heritage of the district is portrayed through spectacular presentations of Theyyam, Yakshagana, Poorakkali, Kolkali and Mappilappattu. Seven languages are prevalent in Kasaragod. Malayalam is the administrative language. Other languages are Kannada, Tulu, Konkani, Marati, Urdu and Beary.Prior to State reorganization, Kasaragod was part of the South Kanara district.Kasaragod became a part of Malabar district following the reorganization of States and formation of unified Kerala State. Later, Kasaragod Taluk of Malabar district was bifurcated in to Kasaragod and Hosdurg Taluks and integrated with the then newly formed Cannanore district. Kasaragod became part of Kerala following the re-organization of states and formation of Kerala in 1st November 1956.The district was Kasaragod Taluk in Kannur District.The formation of Kasaragod district was a long felt ambition of the people.It is with the intention of bestowing maximum attention on the development of backward area, Kasaragod district was formed on 24th May,1984 as per GO (MS)No.520/84/RD, Dated 19.05.1984 by taking Kasaragod and Hosdurg taluks from the then Kannur district.The name Kasaragod is said to be derived from the word Kasaragod which means Nuxvemied Forest(Kanjirakuttam). 1.2.

  • Institutional Dynamics of Local Self Governance Systems in the Malabar Coast, Kerala1 Baiju K K2
    INSTITUTIONAL DYNAMICS OF LOCAL SELF GOVERNANCE SYSTEMS IN THE MALABAR COAST, KERALA1 BAIJU K K2 Abstract The effectiveness of state laws continues to challenge the top-down management of common property resources in many coastal villages in Kerala. Most often, state‟s response to common property management is unidirectional and opens up channels to transform common property rights to open access. Amidst these institutional struggles, local self governing institutions continue to challenge state legal systems and evolve multi-dimensional governance systems. This paper documents the working of intrinsically diverse kadakkody’ (sea court) system in the Malabar Coast of Kerala, India and discusses how the local level community-based self-governing institutions change due to technological developments and state interventions. The Kadakodi system that existed in the study area during the pre-mechanisation era was an integrated complex governing system of the artisanal fishermen with regulative, normative and cognitive functions. The paper addresses three questions. What was the nature and functions of the kadakkodi system during the pre- mechanisation era? What are the major drivers of change? How did this system overcome stresses and adapt to the challenges of globalisation? Key words: Kadakkodi, self governance, common property, community-based management, institutions, conflict 1 Greatly Acknowledge Prof .Dr. K.T.Thomson for his comments . 2 Research scholar, School of Industrial Fisheries, Cochin University of Science and Technology, Kerala, India, E. Mail: [email protected] 1 Introduction Local self governing systems delivered a variety of useful services for the management of traditional fisheries in many countries (Townsend, 1995; Townsend, et.al.,2008; Berkes, 1986; Gray, 2005; Kurien, 2002).

  • Kerala State Action Plan on Climate Change 1
    Response to climate change: Strategy and Action in Kerala Background Climate change poses an emerging challenge to sustainability of social and economic development, livelihoods, and environmental management across the globe. The rise in Green House Gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere causes rise in temperature which in turn leads to unpredictable weather including flash floods and drought, and rise in sea level. So far as India is considered, the country is highly vulnerable to climate change because of high physical exposure to climate related disasters (65% is drought prone, 12% is flood prone, 8% susceptible to cyclones) and also the India’ economy and population depends on climate sensitive sectors like agriculture, forests, tourism and fisheries. The concern on climate change has caught intense focus after the publication of Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) of the Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change and when post Kyoto strategy became the agenda for discussions in the Conferences of Parties for UNFCC. India had started its work on action plan in 2007 and the National Action Plan for Climate Change (NAPCC) was released in October 2008. The NAPCC sets eight National Missions to respond climate change; these include National Mission on Solar Energy, Enhanced Energy Efficiency, Sustainable Agriculture, Sustainable Habitat, Water, Sustaining Himalayan Eco-System, Green India Mission and Strategic Knowledge for climate change covering range of actions including adaptation and mitigations. The principles adopted for the NAPCC include achieving sustainable development path while advancing economic and environmental objectives. The following points form the basis of the national strategy. 1. Protecting the poor and vulnerable sections of society through an inclusive and sustainable development strategy, sensitive to climate change.

V. Neethu1* and R. Miriam2 1*Center for Natural Hazards and Disaster Studies, University of Madras, Chennai, India. 2Department of Geography, Nirmala College for Women, Coimbatore, India. ABSTRACT The excessive use of pesticides in agriculture has an adverse impact on human health and the environment. Environmental health problems vary from region to region, reflecting the geography, climate and the level of economic development. Many health problems are associated with poverty and lack of fundamental resources. The aerial spraying of pesticides leads to suspension of toxic compounds in the environment. The residue of pesticides accumulates over years which lead to gradual occurrence of diseases. Kasaragod, the northern most district of Kerala, is a lush region with large cashew plantations. The use of pesticides in the cashew plantations has resulted in long term negative impacts on the health of the people living in the vicinity of plantations as well as in remote regions. The affect of pesticides on the health of settlements in remote area has to be understood along with the physiography of the region. The role of physiography in the spread of diseases has been systematically studied and analyzed using GIS technique. The result shows that a large number of victims have been identified in the settlements near to the river banks.
