  • Social Movements & Saving Rivers: What Can Be Learned from the Narmada?

    Social Movements & Saving Rivers: What Can Be Learned from the Narmada?

    Social movements & saving rivers: What can be learned from the Narmada? Harry Blair ([email protected]) Yale-TERI Workshop on the Yamuna River: A Confluence of Waters, a Crisis of Need 3 January 2011 Like the Yamuna, the Narmada has long been esteemed as one of India’s five most sacred rivers. And like the Yamuna, the Narmada has long been regarded by many as a place of unacceptable degradation of the environment and threat to the local human population. But while the Narmada has been the focus of a decades-long social movement protesting outside intrusions, the Yamuna thus far has not. Are there some worthwhile lessons from the Narmada experience that could inform future activity to redeem the Yamuna? This paper and conference presentation argue that a number of valuable lessons can be distilled from the Narmada saga. The principal theme of these lessons is civil society advocacy. “Civil society” can be defined as organized activity not part of the state, the private sector or the family, in which people act to promote mutual interests. “Advocacy” in turn can be defined as the process through which individuals or organizations endeavor to influence public policy making and implementation. Thus “civil society advocacy” would mean efforts on the part of civil society organizations (CSOs) to influence state behavior. Since the late 1940s, a series of plans has aimed to harness the Narmada River through dams to provide hydropower and irrigation. The centerpiece of the whole enterprise has been the last dam before the river empties into the Arabian Sea, the huge structure at Sardar Sarovar.

  • Environmental Movements by Women

    Environmental Movements by Women

    ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENTS BY WOMEN Dr. Badiger Suresh & B. Kattimani Dept. of Women Studies Gulbara University Gulbarga Especially interesting is the leading role women played in the nation‟s early environmental movement. This movement began at least a century and a half ago, peaked in the Progressive era of the 1890s, and then declined during the war years in the early- to mid-20th century. Environmental movements of various countries have emerged due to different reasons. It is basically due to prevailing environmental quality of the locality. The environmental movements in the north are basically on the issue of quality of life. Whereas the environment movements in the south arise due to some other reasons, such as due to conflicts for controling of natural resources and many more. It is being said that the, environmental movements in India The participants of these movements in North are the middle class and upper class women, who have concern for the nature. But protesters are generally the marginal population – hill peasants, tribal communities, fishermen and other underprivileged people. The different environmental movements in our own country support this argument. The examples could be taken as Chipko, N.B.A Movements. Mitti Bachao Movements Andolan, Koel-Karo Movements(Andolan) and Green Belt Movements ( Andolana) Narmada Bachao Movements Andolan etc. That is why the environmentalism of the is refereed as “full stomach” environmentalism and the environmentalism of the south is called as “empty – belly” environmentalism. Chipko movement (Andolan) One of the first environmentalist movement which was inspired by women was the Chipko movement (Women tree-huggers in India).

    Ecological and Institutional Analysis of Inland Fisheries Resource Management: Productivity in the Case of Tawa Reservoir, India AMALENDU JYOTISHI Gujarat Institute of Development Research S-G Highway, Gota, Ahmedabsd 380 060 India E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Fishing in inland water bodies such as flood plain lakes, river, estuaries and reservoirs, has an important role for rural people. Fish is an important source of protein diet of many households and generate significant income as well as provide employment opportunities. 70 percent of the 0.71 million active fisher folks in India are employed in the inland fisheries and India has a total of 19,370 reservoir units covering an area of 31, 53,366 hectares, hence creates a lot of opportunities for economic development of the rural people. Reservoir fisheries are classic case of Common Pool Resources (CPRS) and hence require comprehensive institutional arrangement that can ensure productivity of the fish resources without compromising with the ecological needs. Therefore, through the case of Tawa reservoir, we are trying to understand the fisheries resource and the production scenario. Tawa reservoir has undergone operation through different management regime, and hence, provides an opportunity to comprehend the performance of these regimes and their implications on fisheries resources. In this paper, our attempt is therefore, to understand the dynamics of the fisheries resource of Tawa reservoir. With the limited available data, we analyse the catch and stocking relationship, predator-prey relationship and also to identify the determinants that influence the productivity of the Tawa reservoir. Based on the time-series data available a model was developed to determine the production possibility of the fish resource in Tawa.
