INTRODUCTION |
|
Introduction: UNESCO clubs are groups of people of all ages, from all walks of life, who share the UNESCO ideals and seek to disseminate them. They associate themselves with and work for activities, which directly inspired UNESCO. The UNESCO club movement grew spontaneously out of the enthusiasm and idealism of the people of several countries. The first UNESCO club was set up in Sendai, Japan on July 19, 1973. Today, UNESCO clubs have spread all over the world. Although the clubs may assume different forms, they all have something in common - a strong belief in UNESCOs ideals as set forth in its constitution and a commitment to the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The function of a club may be summed up in three words: Training, Information and Action. About Samveda UNESCO club: Our club was registered under the Indian National Federation of UNESCO clubs and Association (INFUCA), Bangalore in 1996. INFUCA is a member of Indian National Commission (INC) for Co-operation with UNESCO. Samveda UNESCO club conducted several programmes related to special education, general education, arts and crafts, heritage, music and dance etc. Recognizing its activities INFUCA awarded Mr. Surendranath P. Nishanimut, the founder- director, the Masaka Yumiba Gold Medal for meritorious service in the field of Special Education.
