Vidyanagar Nature Club (VNC) was established in 1988 with a mission to spread awareness amongst the local people on the need for environmental protection. VNC addresses environment needs under three broad categories:

  • Environment Education - The aim is to recognize nature carrying capacity and develop models to enable sustainable growth and development.
  • Research and Nature Conservation.
  • Awareness and Advocacy Initiatives.

The above categories’ projects include:

  • Observational Outings provide a break to city dwellers and introduce them to the beauty of nature.
  • Camps promote adaptive living in harmony with nature.
  • Anubhav - experiential learning which provides real experience about the environment which is taught in classrooms.
  • Seminars and Workshops.
  • Environmental Awareness.
  • Reptile Education Program to dispel myths about reptiles and ensure they are not exterminated.
  • Tree Conservation and Plantation - Along with spreading this message, VNC collaborates with other NGOs to promote tree plantations.
  • Evils of plastic.
  • Pollution - air and water pollution. The awareness measures taken by VNC led to the close of a polluting fertilizer plant in the region.
  • Environmental Conservation.
  • Rescue & Rehabilitation - VNC supports the rescue of urban wildlife
  • Saving Trees - VNC campaigns to prevent unnecessary felling of trees and has saved 500+ trees.
