關(guān)于Pitchandikulam森林的項(xiàng)目建設(shè)
12-28, 2012
Project Statement
Pitchandikulam森林是希望在該地區(qū)建立一個(gè)計(jì)算機(jī)信息中心，可提供培訓(xùn)婦女，農(nóng)民，
學(xué)生等村民。也可以用這個(gè)網(wǎng)站整理的所有地區(qū)的人口和基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施數(shù)據(jù)為基礎(chǔ)，為提供管道
社區(qū)和政府之間進(jìn)行信息交換。
Pitchandikulam Forest is looking to create a computer information centre in the region which can provide training to women’s groups, farmers,
students and other villagers. This site will also be used as the base for collating all regional population and infrastructure data and provide a conduit
for information exchange between the communities and the government.
Considerations
When designing a solution, the following issues have been identified and should be considered a priority. The proposal should consider the following:
• The community currently is reliant upon mobile phones to communicate and there are no landline telephones.
• Computer skills vary throughout the community and so should start at a basic level and build in complexity.
• Educational priorities are for school students undertaking Math, Science and English, as well as farmers and women’s groups; therefore specification
of who will use the resource and how it is to be used is necessary.
Suggested Projects
EWB and Pitchandikulam Forest invite you to consider one or more of the following design projects:
• Cost-effective internet and communication systems.
• Software (educational games) relating to primary and secondary education.
• Hardware for interactive educational games.
• Development of a tutorial software program that will provide basic computer awareness training.
• Interactive software programs that teaches users sustainable practices.
Further Information
This design area would develop the skills and knowledge of design groups in the area of telecommunications, computer systems
or education. This area will look at how Pitchandikulam Forest can utilise these technologies to teach students basic computer skills
and about sustainability. Additionally it can also help identify simple technologies that might be available to improve this process.
The plausibility of implementing these technologies and their cost to operate should be a key factor in the design.
Design Areas 6- Information, Communication and Technology (ICT) for Educational Activities
Project Statement
Pitchandikulam Forest is interested in developing a cost effective waste management system within the community or to develop an effective method of
transporting solid waste to the village of Kadapakkam. It would be ideal to have a waste management system that integrates waste reduction, re-use and#p#分頁(yè)標(biāo)題#e#
recycling strategies with livelihood and energy generation. It is recognised that many waste streams can be reused or modified to become a valuable product.
Considerations
When designing a solution, the following issues have been identified and should be considered a priority. The proposal
should consider the following:
•轉(zhuǎn)換成有價(jià)值的產(chǎn)品，成為一個(gè)收入廢物流的好地方。
•還可以將鄰村的廢棄物進(jìn)行管理。
•廢物傾倒。
•大量的教育活動(dòng)已在當(dāng)?shù)啬酥寥珖?guó)都取得了成功，。
• The benefits of converting a waste stream into a valuable product which becomes an income stream.
• Waste management can also incorporate the neighbouring village of Nadukuppam.
• Waste is currently dumped behind people’s houses.
• Numerous education campaigns have been conducted with limited success locally and nationally.
• Pitchandikulam has been involved in a solid waste management program with the East-West Foundation of India in
Kadapakkam, a village approximately 22 km away from Devikulam.
• At Kadapakkam’s solid waste management site, three staff members sort waste and recycling materials.
Suggested Projects
EWB and Pitchandikulam Forest invite you to consider one or more of the following design projects:
• Integrated waste management systems including recycling and reuse opportunities.
• Composting system for household waste.
• Waste collection devices.
• Waste reduction and management education.
• Develop a cost effective way of transporting solid waste from Devikulam to the Kadapakkam waste management
facility.
Further Information
This design area would develop the skills and knowledge of design groups in the area of reducing and preventing waste produced from the community
using innovative and people-focused methods or finding an effective transportation method to collect and transport the waste produced. A key
consideration is how to incentivise waste management within the community so that it will be self sustaining.

Project Statement
Pitchandikulam Forest is looking to improve the ability of housing in the community to handle the hot and wet seasons. Houses in Devikulam are
mostly huts with cement or mud floors, walls made from mud or burnt brick, and roofs made of either thatch or palm leaf.
Considerations
When designing a solution, the following issues have been identified and should be considered a priority. The proposal should consider the following
• The community prefer staying in mud-thatch houses as they are cooler to live in.
• Government houses (constructed of concrete) are so hot in the summer that they have to sleep outside at night-time.
• Colony residents want to improve the quality of their mud houses to provide better protection from the rain.
• Group government housing has been provided which is in urgent need of maintenance
• Open defecation is a problem and provision of toilet facilities at each house would be beneficial.
• Housing design would need to consider the climate of the area- homes have sloping roofs made of slate due to the monsoon type climate.
Suggested Projects
EWB and Pitchandikulam Forest invite you to consider http://www.400190.com/thesis_sample/ one or more of the following design projects:
• Re-design existing mud-thatch houses at Devikulam.
• Develop a way to reduce heat retention and energy costs in government housing.
• Design group houses for the colony residents.
• Develop a way to improve protection from the rain.
• Design toilet facilities for households.
Further Information
This design area would develop the skills and knowledge of design groups in the area of construction and design of community housing.
This area will look at how the buildings provided can be improved to handle the climate of the region and investigate how construction can
be used to improve sanitation practices.

According to EWB and Pitchandikulam, all student proposals must meet the following criteria:
• Alignment with the cultural responsibilities of the Devikulam community, such as protecting cultural sites.
• Setting an example of sustainable land management.
• Creation of opportunities for Devikulam people so they can improve their livelihood in the region.
• To create centres of environmental education and training in rural and coastal contexts.
• Proposed solutions must consider the capacity of the community to maintain the equipment and build on their existing
community strengths.
• To take the necessary steps to protect, preserve the existing natural environment, and encourage traditional practices.
