Abstract

The ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, the premier research institute in the country is involved in marine fisheries and mariculture research in the past several decades. The institute made significant strides in developing several noteworthy technologies aimed at augmenting and sustaining the fish production and livelihoods of coastal fisherfolk. The institute is also instrumental in developing and popularising eco-friendly and low carbon technologies for sustaining the marine and coastal ecosystems. In fulfilling the goals of the National Sanitation Campaign (Swachh Bharat Abhiyan) announced by the Hon’ble Prime Minister on 2nd October, 2014, ICAR-CMFRI took great initiatives to ensure the smooth conduct of the campaign with the active involvement of the staff members across the maritime states of the country. Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute with its headquarters at Kochi and 11 Regional/Research Centres and Krishi Vigyan Kendra all along the maritime states has chalked out elaborate plans to carry out the National Sanitation Campaign (Swachh Bharat Abhiyan). CMFRI successfully implemented the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan by developing and promoting novel technologies for swachhta, waste to wealth initiatives, public awareness programmes, coastal clean-up drives involving coastal communities, awareness programmes through cleanliness drives, competitions, awareness talks, webinars, rallies, workshops, exhibitions, demonstrations, art installations and publications. As the country celebrates one decade of the successful implementation of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, ICAR-CMFRI brings out this publication One decade of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan at ICAR-CMFRI. The book portrays the significant initiatives taken up ICAR-CMFRI for the Clean India Movement of the country in the past decade. We hope this book will be a humble contribution towards promoting the Swachhta goals of a clean and hygienic India. We express our sincere thanks to all those who have contributed for the successful implementation of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan in CMFRI.
