GOBAR TIMES
EDUCATIONAL ECO-TOUR- December 20th
2000
There is more than what meets the eye. Gobar Times tries to
stimulate young minds into questioning existing social and economic conditions. As part of
its ongoing efforts in Environmental Education GT had in one of its issues, elicited
responses from its young readers to the question
Why, do you think, are people
poor?
We received hundreds of entries from children across the
country. While some wrote essays, others wrote a poem or made a drawing. Out of these ten
children earned themselves a five-day Gobar Times Educational Eco-tour. They traveled to
Alwar, a district in Rajasthan, to understand the issue of ecological poverty.
