Communication for Awareness
CSE uses several
communication strategies to establish networks among government officials, mass media and
concerned citizens worldwide. Some widely-used communication tools include Indias
only science and environment fortnightly, Down To Earth magazine, which
reaches almost all districts in the country; the State
of Indias Environment reports (SOE); an environment
Feature Service; Press Briefings; Fellowships and Workshops for journalists; several
newsletters on health, water harvesting, climate change, and one for children.
The Internet is also
extensively used to spread awareness. The comprehensive CSE
Website carries news and
announcements about the Centres activities. CSE also uses several advanced
interactive Internet-based tools including e-mail bulletins, listserv and message boards.
CSE's Environmental Resource Units online Library
is among
Indias most comprehensive environmental resource. It contains thousands of books,
journals, specialised news clippings, and also stills, films and videos.
