Introduction

About the Community

• Geographical Location: Balyawali Talai,a village situated 1km interior to the Jaipur – Delhi Highway in Gram Panchayat Labana, Block Amber, Dist. Jaipur. Located in the midst of sandy ground with the distances between the hamlets and far from the water resources.

• Cultural Background: A village with the majority of population of Meena, Gurjar and Brahmin community with a orthodox traditional background. a Veiling system, females not allowed to go outside or giving more exposures. People mainly depends on Agriculture and Labor work in NREGS or migrating to the other places.

• Role of Satya Bharti School in the Village: A tremendous work done by the Satya Bharti School from the last two years, encouraged girl child enrollment and retention. Enrollment of 96 students from the very small catchment area and in spite of the presence of other private schools. People now understands the importance of education and dignity of women in the society.

• Participation in ‘Design for change’ School Contest: Near about all the community members participated in the campaign to be a part of this revolution. There was unexpected response from the community, all are supported us and the appreciated and encouraged the students too much.

• People of this village don’t know the importance of environment. They are damaging the system unknowingly.

• Many peoples are cutting the trees without planting any tree so total numbers of trees going down.

• There is a need to aware the people about the environment conservation and guide them with the help of our teachers to how we can save it for our future.

• The community of this village is very conscious about our work and aim, we just to click the idea and give a start only.

• Last time on water conservation work people helped us a lot .and this time we are confident about the result of our work.

We ‘Felt’:

• This year we will work for our environment and save our trees, increase the greenery of the village , hygiene , water cleanliness & Soil conservation.

• This village is depend on “chulha” for cooking food and need wood for it. We can’t stop them for them but we can work for plantation at a huge level.

• We will spread the importance of environment with the help of community members.

• We will stop the people to spoil the water, soil and encourage them to save the trees.

We ‘Imagined’:

We stopped the villagers to cut the tree completely, tried to make an understanding on the importance of water cleanliness, hygiene and soil conservation.

We went to the mines and tried to convince the owner and the workers to help us in our program (specially) in soil conservation.

We cleaned the waste water pipes to put the massage of hygiene.

We planted the trees to motivate the villagers.

We ‘Did’:

Ward panch Mr.Arvind said “ Bharti foundation ke school sach me bahut umda kaam kar rahe hai.chote-2 bachhe wo kaam haath me le rahe hai jo hum badon ko karne chahiye.ab bhi kuch nahi bigda hai in baccho ne jo kaam shuru kiya hai use hum poora karen.

All the village people listened our thought and promised us to do the act to help the environment. They also promised us to spread the awareness in the nearby villages.

Women of the village came to the school to know the processs/works to help the environment.

• Arvind Meena (Ward Panch, Gram Panchayat Labana) – I am very excited to be a part of it and will proud to support the campaign without hesitating as it is showed by our small students especially girls that as a female what is our potential and caliber. If such small students will whole heartedly wandering in this sunlight for their own village development than I am so young to take any kind of such initiatives.

Spend days to facilitate and motivate our students to participate in it and perform well. The result cameout is the reflection of our dedication and commitment

We will discuse the growth of our initiative in every PTM.

We will plan for other problems with the elders of the community.

We will make a youth team for monitoring on these type of works and get the necessary help from the village/ leaders.

We will take some guidelines from the technical persons time to time.

We will go in panchayat samiti with ward panch in each month to know the new schemes which will creat an effect on environment.
