Description
Description
Water is one of the most precious baseline elements of all living creatures beginning from Plants to Human beings. Hence, it is treated as the elixir of life. The cost of the water can not be assessed in terms of money. The history says that the ancient human settlement first developed on the banks of the River “Nile” because of the availability of the abundant water source. The Nature has given a lot of water resources. Not only we need water for our survival but also to stay comfortably we need hydropower, thermal power and some other things. The existence of the entire eco-system is based upon the availability of water resources where as the scarcity of water is the hour of the day due to rapid growth of population and rapid development in Industrial sector. Pollution of water is another curse for the human society which creates the misery and misfortune in the lives of the human beings. No doubt the pollution is increasing and it is increasing very fast due to Industrialization, Urbanization, Modernization and unification etc. Hence we should have a deeper understanding that pollution of water is the pollution in life. In fact, there is a conflict between the Nature and the Development. The Nature always wants Development, where as the Development is creating destructions. The reasons there of are fairly obvious to all that due to unsafe drinking water and poor sanitation five million people were dying every year. It is a matter of concern that the level of water related sickness continues to be high. Diseases like Diarrhea, Dysentery, Dyspepsia, Pneumonia, Typhoid, Para-typhoid, Asthma, Cholera, Ascariasis, Hookworm and Poliomyelitis are caused by water contamination and the lack of water quality surveillance is acutely brought into focus during the episodes of water born epidemics. These diseases consume lots of money for Medical attention and medicines which is very staggering. Methodologies, Follow-up Mechanisms and Governance In view of overcoming these challenges, we must proceed in a right direction to fulfill our objectives by providing Food Security, Health Security and Financial Security to the poor people for proper utilization of water resources by the by to save the “Nature and Environment” by adopting the following methodologies and governance Community Organizations (Citizen’s Forums) shall be highly effective for Conservation and effective use of water for sustainability. Preservation of water shall be done through Cultural dependence as the life of Tribal people is based on Culture. The project shall be directly governed by the Secretary, ARASMIN and the regular supervision, monitoring and follow-up shall be done by the Project Coordinator. Plantation of different water harvesting trees like Mango Trees (Maangifera Indica L), Cadam trees (Neolamarckia Cadamba), Tamarind Trees (Tamarindus Indica L), Banyan trees (Benghalensis L), Pipal Trees (Religiosa), Glomerata Roxb and Pierre (Pongamia Pinnata L) etc. through Cultural interventions. Educating the Citizens that Pollution of water is the great barrier to Development. Making Lobby and Advocacy at Political level, Civil society Organizations and the Concerned Departments of Government.

(SDG 3) The Tribal people will have access to Subsistence Agriculture that will provide Food Security, Health security, Financial Security and Employment opportunity. It has also more nutritional contents (SDG 1, SDG 2, SDG 3, SDG 8 and SDG 12) Collective actions shall be taken to stop the use of fertilizer and Pesticides that will check the pollution of water and the quality of water will improve (SDG 3, 14 and 17) The Desertification shall be checked and the deserted are shall be changed into Green area which is a green signal to climate resilience (SDG 15) Our plantation program will compensate the environment, produce more Oxygen, check the pollution of atmosphere and eliminate the Carbon-dioxide (SDG 15) The project shall have a good impact on the Nature and Environment and can combat the Climate Change (SDG 13 and SDG 15) Development of Forest will bring Food Security, Health Security and Financial Security for the Tribal people. (SDG 1, SDG 2, SDG 3, SSG 8 and SDG 12) Sufficient Man-days can be created for the Tribal people by which they will have more access to their income (SDG 8) Priority shall be given on the women mass on implementation of the project activities and proper management of water as a token on Gender equalization (SDG 5 and SDG 14). The Forest area and the natural habitats by getting sufficient water will grow faster and faster and shall be environmentally and ecologically sound and sustainable (SDG 14 and 15). All the wildlife animals, Birds and the Bio-diversities shall get the opportunity to grow fast and faster (SDG 15). Strengthening the Human settlement in Tribal area by proving Food Security and other opportunities and make it resilient and sustainable (SDG 11). Being involved with the project activity as a potential partner, the Cultural traditions of the Tribal people develop automatically (SDG 17) Working in partnership with the like-minded NGOs and Government Officers will bring a great impact to strengthen and activate our program (SDG 17).
Partners

We do not find any like-minded Partner in our State. So, we will implement this project on Individual Capacity.

Additional information
We do not have additional website. ABOUT US: Our Organization is accredited to United Nations with ECOSOC status, accredited to UNEP and accredited to UNCCD and a potential member of IUCN. As such, we are working to save the Nature and save the Planet. Some of our activities are displayed hereunder: FOREST AND ENVIRONMENT: Environmental degradation during these present days has become a Global Issue. Degradation of Forest, Extinction of Wild Animals, diminishing Biological diversity and Raise of Temperature are the acute problems and the vital cause of Environmental degradation. It is a broad concept which includes pollution of various biological and physical components of the planet as a result of which the entire world is going to be destroyed. Hence, we are working to Restore the Forest Landscape, Conservation of Nature, Biodiversity, Control the Desertification, Pollution, Restore the Environment and combat Climate Change and Providing the drinking water facility to save the endangered species and appropriate actions are being taken to accomplish our Goals and Targets. CLIMATE CHANGE-vs- AIR POLLUTION: The Climate is changing and it is changing very fast. In view of this occurrence, some of the Global visionaries and International Agencies have come to a conclusion attributing the Population growth with a notion of equitable blames. But, in real sense the destructive activity of human beings is the main cause of climate change, pollution of Air, Water and Soil. In view of this fact, we endorse the Frameworks of the Climate Change by undertaking some important activities to address the Short-lived Climate Pollutants (SLCPs) from the Air. SUBSISTENCE AGRICULTURE AND GREEN ECONOMY: Subsistence Agriculture is the only livelihood support opportunity that improves the individuals and poor Community well-beings. Hence, it is advisable to have this Subsistence Agricultural Farming that saves the lives of the Tribal people as well as keeps the Planet healthy. Subsistence Agriculture is also for elimination of Poverty and Hunger if the Nature-based Solutions are adopted. The crop is Eco-friendly, Climate friendly, Climate resilient, Climate smart, Carbon smart, Water smart, Energy smart and provides Employment facility. WATER AND SANITATION: Conservation of water is a broad concept to save including the Environment and Ecosystem. Water is the second supreme ingredient on the construction of Human Body next to Earth as per mythological belief and treated as the baseline element and the elixir of life. Hence, it is contemplated to have the sustainable management of this most precious gift of Nature to save all the living beings on this Earth and to save the Planet. Hence, we need the water with sanitary measures to lead a healthy life and healthy survival. MARINE ECOSYSTEM AND BLUE ECONOMY: We are working to save and protect the Marine Mammals like Shark, Whales, Dolphins and other endangered fish species and Marine Ecosystem. Blue Economy is the new approach of sustainability and the world acknowledges the role of our Oceans that “Only a healthy Marine Ecosystem can offer ecosystem goods and services to increasing rate of population”.
