by shipra mathur | September 7, 2010 at 8:27 PM | Funding
Hi i am heading a development communication division of Rajasthan Patrika, a mainstream daily ( 27 million readership, est 1956) seeks to engage in social activities for a range of issues. currently seeking to launch two projects
1. Exlporing innovations in rural areas and seeking to highlight the innovations and getting the innovation legal protection under intellectual property rights
2. A block where two decade work of villagers and voluntary organisations have brought environment restoration after devastation in flood leading to socio economic change and women empowerment - an interesting case study of eco religion practices. Seeks to document the 150 eco religion sites, publish them in series in the newspaper and establish changes in climatic condition and impact on socio ecoomic status by action research element.

Possible Partnership with Rajasthan Patrika
Hi Shipra
I just happened to read your post and it sounds very interesting. I work for Video Volunteers (www.videovolunteers.org) India's largest community media organization. We have a countrywide network of rural correspondents, including women from the underprivileged class.
Could you tell me what kind of partnership are you looking for? Is it in content production or training or research based?
Is there a way we could partner?
Regards
Stella

thanks stella, visited yr site, doing good work. best. My organisation has a large network of reporters, stringers and volunteers whom we call Jan Prahari in each district of rajasthan. for the mentioned projects i need a funder who can engage with us as part of CSR. if funding could be generated for the tasks involving the voiceless ( could then include your rural correspondents also) and giving space in the newspaper would be ensured.
thanks
