This has seriously eroded the diversity of local varieties. This displacement has not only led to loss of diversity, but to several undesirable ecological consequences … (full text Biodiversity).

Education that works

Eklavya Education Foundation came into being in the year 1996 with a mission to revolutionize school education in India. It is a non-governmental, not-for-profit organisation established by young professionals, educators and businessmen to set up and run schools and teacher training colleges in a professional, modern and ethical manner.
Brief Introduction: In the year 1986 a company named Core Emballage Ltd formulated its investment philosophy, which simply put, is:

• The first rupee earned will be reinvested in productive assets (more machines and more sales people);
• The second rupee earned will go to the employees in terms of better salaries, working conditions, etc.;
• The third rupee earned will go to the shareholders;
• The fourth rupee earned will go back to the society, from where, in a way, all the four rupees are being earned.

Conflict analysis - Resolution - Public diplomacy

This site has been constructed as an on line resource for the book: The People’s Peace Process in Northern Ireland: Many important lessons have come out of the negotiations for the Belfast Agreement. This book explains how public opinion polls were used in support of the Northern Ireland peace process. Significantly, it was the politicians who decided the questions so that they could map out areas of compromise and common ground that their supporters would accept. This book explains how the work was done so that others can apply the benefits of this experience to their own peace building activities. - The book is available to provide up to date information on the latest peace polls and copies of questionnaires and statistical reports as downloads.

About: The Genocide Prevention Project, founded in the fall of 2008, seeks to build the public will to call on the international community to take meaningful actions when “early warning” indicators signal possible onset of mass-scale atrocity crimes, and to mobilize resources to avert or halt such ongoing crises and protect civilians from mass atrocity crimes.

The Genocide Prevention Project focuses on public education and advocacy. Our initiatives include the Mass Atrocity Crimes Watch List and Genocide Prevention Month in April 2009. The month is a 30-day commemoration of past genocide and mass atrocity crimes. We are working with genocide survivors and international survivor organizations to generate a civil society call for the implementation of prevention strategies. The Genocide Prevention Project is an initiative of Public Interest Projects, a 501(c)3 public charity in New York.
