It is registered at the District Administration Office Lalitpur and is affiliated with the Social Welfare Council, Kathmandu. The office of the friendly, through active participation in the educational program organized by the CEEN. <br /> Therefore, the main aim of CEEN is dissemination of CEEN is housed in the Chairman's rented residence. The CEEN's activities are being undertaken voluntarily by the members. <br /> Its main aim is to bring about awareness about the environmental problems among the young and the old the students and the public at large and to suggest simple ideas which are environmentally Environmental Awareness to fulfill the national and global mandate of Sustainable Development.</span></span><br /> </h3> <h3 style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:14px;">Background<br /> Development of a nation is necessary; and it is during this process that most of the environmental problems have emerged. The mother Earth, at the moment is at the threshold of fast developmental activities and irreversible environmental problems. <br /> Man, the most intelligent animal, in the beginning, started his activities to dominate the earth displacing other species and without anticipating the repercussions of his actions. <br /> However, at one time, he found himself the most endangered species. He realized that if life on earth is to sustain, careful planning in the development process is a must.<br /> <br /> Environment Education<br /> Any citizen who misses environmental education today will be a blind man tomorrow in his thought and actions. Environmental Education (EE), therefore, has to be apart and parcel of each individual. The EE aims at developing ethical values which guides the activities of a person. It is a matter of fact that every individual on the earth has a direct or indirect relationship with the global issues like green house effect, ozone depletion, acid rain, desertification, etc; but it is hard to believe and understand. Disseminating Environmental Education is the only way which enables one to understand that all these complex problems have roots in our daily activities and that, modification in our attitude and actions have a positive impact on the environment. Imparting this education has been the main focus of the CEEN.<br /> <br /> "The CEEN has developed a One Day Conservation Education Workshop for students above class VI and for teachers, during Saturdays and holidays. For details, interested schools may contact the CEEN."</span></span><br /> </h3> <h3 style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:14px;">Mission of CEEN<br /> The mission of the CEEN is to create awareness on environmental conservation to be eco-friendly at all times. This will be achieved through the following activities: </span></span></h3> <h3 style="text-align: justify;"> <br /> <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:14px;"> 1. Environmental Education Projects. <br /> 2. Classes and Camps for students and teachers. <br /> 3. Essay, Art, Quiz, Debate on environmental themes. <br /> 4. Environmental Campaigns. <br /> 5. Observation of National and Global Environmental Days. <br /> 6. Workshops/Seminars. <br /> 7. Education through media-both paper and print media.<br /> <br /> Steering Body of CEEN<br /> The CEEN is comprised of the Chairman, Vice Chairman, General Secretary, Treasures and three permanent members to co-ordinate all the activities of the organization. <br /> The Central Working Committee is elected for a term of two years, which is then dissolved and re-election takes place for another two years. <br /> All the members have different backgrounds and nature of work. Meeting takes place frequently to discuss and plan the programs.<br /> <br /> Library</span></span></h3> <h3 style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:14px;">Through donation of books and education materials, the CEEN has been able to establish a modest library. The members regularly borrow the library and are making great use of them. <br /> Donations from WWF UK, IUCN Nepal, SNV, World Watch, USA, ICIMOD Nepal, RSPCA, UK are being received on a regular basis. <br /> Similar requests are made to several national and international organizations for support of the CEEN library. Many of the materials are used by the teachers.<br /> <br /> Projects/Programs under taken so for/News Update<br /> Since its inception, the CEEN has been able to undertake several programs, despite financial constraints, of which the following are the main:</span></span><br /> </h3> <h3 style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:14px;">1. Development of Eco club and Green Gift Strategic Analysis for WWF Nepal Program.<br /> WWF Nepal Program awarded the CEEN a small grant to develop an "Eco club and Green Gift Strategic Analysis". To develop this, the chairman, Mr. Parshuram S Niraula, visited about fifteen schools of Kathmandu valley, to study and review the school-based environmental programs through eco clubs. <br /> He met the students, teachers and the principals to seek their experiences. To present the findings of the study, a workshop was held at Hotel Clarion in Lalitpur on October 11, 1999. The workshop was attended by teachers from schools having eco clubs, officials from WWF Nepal Program, IUCN, Central Zoo/KMTNC, and CEEN executive members. <br /> The workshop was inaugurated by Mr. Ukesh Raj Bhuju, Conservation Director of WWF Nepal Program. The workshop was aimed to give a final shape to the strategy document.<br /> <br /> 2. Establishment of Eco club at a high school:<br /> Sudesha High School in Lalitpur was made a pilot school where a number of activities took place. It was started with the establishment of a club which focused conservation programs. The Earth Day 2000 was celebrated with programs like environmental songs, skits and actual clean ups. The participants, after the cultural program, cleaned up the school compound, the road and finally moved to a nearby temple and cleaned it thoroughly.

Honorable Dr. Ram Baran Yadav, President of Nepal, who had graced the day’s celebrations. “It is heartening to see conservation leaders, who have been duly awarded for their contributions, take up biodiversity protection as their cause and I hope through this recognition they are further motivated to help protect Nepal’s natural riches including key species such as snow leopards and tigers.”
On this occasion, WWF Nepal felicitated one organization and five individuals for their exemplary contribution to biodiversity conservation in Nepal through the Abraham Conservation Awards, Matthew Preece & Yeshi Choden Lama Young Conservation Leader Award, WWF Media in Conservation Award and a Special Conservation Award.
