National and international level and the
strategy is to collaborate with others to
build synergies, achieve a multiplier effect and enhance effectiveness.
CEE is located on the 14 acre campus of
its parent organization, The Nehru
Foundation for Development (NFD). The
campus has over two hundred species of
trees, shrubs and creepers. These in turn
attract numerous species of birds. The hill
has become home to many species of
reptiles, some small mammals and
several invertebrates and not to talk of the
increasing Langoor population.
All this grew out of the fundamental belief
in seeking the help of the community
around the hill and sharing resources
rather than cutting them off from their fair
share and access to the resources. |
