Get Our Act
Together’ on World Sustainable Housing
Day – 9th September’07, 5.00 PM |
| |
At the outset,
allow me to once again extend my heartiest
gratitude for the immense interest shown by
your goodself and the trouble taken by you
to come and actively participate in our conference
“Sustainable Living ’07. The credit
of the success of the conference goes entirely
to the eminent panelists, jury members of
all the competitions, the volunteers and the
public. And this support from you has given
us immense confidence and encouragement to
“carry on” with the task of trying
to ensure ‘Ecological Literacy for All’.
And in this regard we wish to bring to your
kind notice a few of our observations. |
| |
|
95% of the
panelists (Confirmed) came and attended the
conference and the panel discussions were
highly informative and thought provoking. |
| |
|
95% of the heads of the
govt. organizations responded very well and
some of them even partly sponsored the event.
But the attendance of the employees from govt.
organizations was very less. We had contacted
155 organizations and sent invitations to
400 Government offices. |
| |
|
99% of the Architecture
fraternity was absent. We sent e-mails, phoned
and sent letters to 600 Architectural firms
and also sent 200 invitations. The response
from the colleges of Architecture was also
not very encouraging. Out of the 161 Architectural
colleges, only 12 participated in the design
competition. |
| |
|
As far as schools and
students (below 17 yrs) participation is concerned
72 children participated in the quiz, essay
and painting competition from 12 schools. |
| |
|
The public participation
or audience was very less. We had contacted
26 Residents welfare Associations, put up
1000 posters all across Bangalore and distributed
5000 pamphlets to the public through Newspapers,
in Cubbon park, Lalbagh and Energy Park. |
| |
|
30 brouchers were sent
to Press club to advertise in the news papers
on every Saturday, from 26th may to 30th June
prior to the conference. We also addressed
a press conference 3 days before the event
to publicize the event to ensure public participation.
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
The above facts have proved
one thing to us that we have a “good
number of people” who are truly and
completely dedicated to this cause and have
already been working for this cause for several
years in their own domains or spheres. |
| |
|
How would it be to “Get
Our Act Together” and move forward?
Whether we can do it? If yes, then how should
we go about it? |
| |
|
To find answers to these
questions we request the pleasure of your
company for a small ‘Get – together’
in the evening on 9th September ’07.
We will intimate the exact time and venue
in a few days time. |
| |
|
A line of confirmation
by mail or sms at the earliest would be highly
appreciated, so that the venue can be decided
on the basis of the number of confirmations.
Suggestions are welcome. |

|
Thanking you in anticipation |
