Editorial

This is the last issue of Parivartan for 2006 and contains brief profiles of projects that were approved this year by the AID-SF Bay Area chapter.  
The projects involve a variety of areas such as Public Health, Environmental Pollution, Community-based Rehabilitation (as part of disaster relief) etc., and are located in various parts of India, including the states of Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Kashmir, Kerala, Maharashtra, and Tamilnadu. 
The central concerns that run through these projects are familiar to supporters of AID: a focus on people-centered and sustainable development, the need to facilitate people’s participation in local governance, and providing support for campaign, advocacy and documentation activities of autonomous people’s movements and grassroots organizations. 
AID-Bay area is also organizing a meeting with activists from the Jharkhandi's Organization Against Radiation in early December. For further details, please email info@aidsfbay.org
