National Environment Awareness Campaign (NEAC)

The National Environment Awareness Campaign (NEAC) is organized by the Ministry of Environment & Forests every year since 1986 with the objective of creating environmental awareness at the national level. This campaign is being continued this year also. The theme for NEAC 2006-07 is:

"Solid Waste Management"

The Ministry of Environment & Forests has identified sub-themes for conducting the campaign. These include household waste and composting j vermin-composting, municipal waste, bio-medical waste, plastics waste, waste management at higher altitude, electronic waste and industrial waste including fly ash.

Proposals are invited from the registered NGOs, voluntary organisations, educational institutions, State Government Departments, registered professional bodies etc. working in the field of environment and sustainable development for creating environmental awareness on the identified theme amongst the masses. The proposal must include an action oriented component, which would result in environmental improvement and benefit to the local community.

The NEAC programme is conducted through the Regional Resource Agencies (RRAs) identified by the Ministry.  VIKSAT is a RRA for the Gujarat.
