Green Defenders
Kashmir was created in January 2003 as a conservation initiative of
esro Kashmir and partnership formed with, national and international
organizations, committed to initiate catalysis action for
conservation and protection of Kashmir's forest, curtailment of
forest exploitation, by providing media, educational, legal,
technical, and other forms of support and advocacy.We are committed
to motivate the public to prevent cruelty to forests and to promote
forest conservation policies that advance the well being of both
forests and people. Help us in promote mass awareness about
ecological importance of floral biodiversity and sustainable
development approach, community participation with eco sensitization
and documentation & disseminating success stories.

WHED is a
plan programme of the esro & International Environmental
Database Management [ IEDM ]. Environmental data's are presently
held unevenly across the State of Jammu & Kashmir in different ,
often incompatible formats. Information based on these data's is
required by the decision makers and other users for different
purpose , such as protected area management , environmental
assessment , land use planning and development , awareness
raising , education , research and prioritization of
conservation actions .
Although many institutions collect data useful for biodiversity
conservation , they are rarely made accessible in reasonable
time or in the formats which the users require , particularly if
the data transcend institutional holdings. This is because such
data are normally collected for internal use by the institutions
concerned , and there is little awareness of the need to build
up essential data assets for wider use.
In order to address the above gap and to provide scientific and
management information for biodiversity conservation in Kashmir
. A key activity taken up by Environment Services and Research
Organization in the pursuit of its objectives is the preparation
of biodiversity profiles of the state of Jammu & Kashmir.
The approach is to put together available information on various
aspects of biodiversity in publications, reports, research
papers, etc. for ease of reference and to promote the use of
this information by policy makers, conservationists, concerned
individuals and organization in their respective context.
WHED is a
decentralised system using the distributed network of data bases
to ensure integration of International efforts in environmental
information collection, storage, retrieval and dissemination to
all concerned including policy planners, decision makers,
research workers and the public.
Long-term objectives are to build up a repository and
dissemination Centre in Environment Science and Engineering; To
gear up the modern technologies of information acquisition,
processing, storage, retrieval and dissemination of
environmental information; To support and promote research,
development and innovation in environmental information
technology.
Short-term objective are to provide International environmental
information service relevant to present needs and capable of
development to meet the future needs of the users, originators,
processors and disseminators of information; To build up
storage, retrieval and dissemination capabilities, with the
ultimate objectives of disseminating information speedily to the
users; To promote national and international co-operation and
liaison for exchange of environment related information; To
promote, support and assist education and personal training
programmes designed to enhance environmental information
processing and utilization capabilities; To promote exchange of
information amongst developing countries
