With its extensive experience of almost three decades on working with rural communities and government schools, USNPSS continues to play a pioneering role in fostering the concepts and practice of community learning, ecological security and ecosystem resilience in Uttarakhand. This annual report commemorates printing of the 28th edition and 29 years of working with a network of community-based organizations (CBOs), women’s groups, children in informal learning centres and in government schools, teachers, adolescent girls and youth in villages. USNPSS, also called the Uttarakhand Environment Education centre (UEEC), began to work as a nodal agency for the Department of Education, Ministry of Human Resource Development; Government of India in Uttarakhand in 1987 in schools and villages by creating a network of community-based organizations and in-service teachers to work in education and environment across the state. The organization also worked as a regional resource agency for the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India, for the National Environment Awareness Campaign (NEAC) for more than a decade. Since 2006, major financial assistance came from the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust, Mumbai and the Rajeshwar Susheela Dayal Charitable Trust, New Delhi. The Tata Trust support ended in September 2015. Together with the support from the Dayal Trust, Association for India’s Development, Washington (AID) and by drawing on our past savings, we continued activities in villages, though at a reduced level. Subsequently, support has been received from the Hari Krishna Kamla Trivedi Memorial Trust, New Delhi for two clusters. The concepts of village ecosystems and community development, as promoted by USNPSS over the last three decades are concerned with understanding the relationships between forests, agriculture, cattle and human populations, with gender and generational changes as cross-cutting themes.

KAMAL BAHUGUNA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR PRE FACE In present day time beauty and tranquility of Himalaya is at stake. Usually marginalized people have less economic opportunities and have over bearing dependence on their natural resource base in their immediate surroundings. So is the case of our Uttarakhand Himalaya. Over exploiting of natural resources are exposing the mountains of our working area to the risks of natural calamities likes landslides, earthquakes, wildlife depletion, etc. Hence, to avoid these threats to human lives in various forms, there comes an urgent need of conservation of the ora and fauna of these noble but Fragile Mountains. To resume the delicate balance between the nature and the human activities, people need to actively and skillfully engage in preservation of this precious Himalayan heritage. Youths and rural households have to position themselves for self-employment and alternative occupations for their livelihoods. Himalayan Institution For Environment, Ecology & Development (HIFEED), established in May 1995, being a dedicated Voluntary Organization is committed for relevant empowering education and all round development of hill communities irrespective of any kind of discrimination.

    JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 04, 2020 A STUDY OF UTILIZATION OF MEDIA FOR TRAFFIC AWARENESS Ritesh Chaudhary1, Shobha Chaudhary2 1School of Media, Journalism & Film Making Himgiri Zee University, Dehradun Email: [email protected], Mobile: 9936825689 2Department of Mass Communication Khawaja Moinuddin Chishti Language University, Lucknow Email: [email protected] Mobile: 91-8419034537 ABSTRACT Among the basic needs of the people, after bread, clothes and houses, other essential things are electricity, water and roads. These are the needs without which people's life would be like living in the primitive world. In all of these, there is such a system of roads, through which a person tries to emerge himself as a big competitor in the stream of development, because the movement itself leads to the development ladder, otherwise sitting at home can lead to any development Cannot move forward. Traffic safety rules were made to make the road system strong and safe. The role of media becomes important for maintaining this traffic safety and their compliance, because media is called representative of general public. Media is also known as the bridge between the government and the common man. The role of the media also becomes important because it works with the neutrality of a law and studies it and presents it to the people. The study presented studies the role of media for traffic awareness. Content analysis and survey method have been adopted in this study. Through the study, an attempt has been made to find out how much and why people follow traffic rules.
