Social workers can mediate in the agricultural process on two crucial levels-first, it can familiarize the local people with the new technologies, information, training, available subsidies, and facilities either by the state or by institutions and organizations, secondly, it can use firsthand knowledge of the condition of the farmers to understand the need of the hour and convey the same to the policymakers. We have seen how many farmer's agitations and movements have been successfully organized in our country on a large scale, but still, two major lacunae in this whole process have limited the impact of these movements on a much greater scale-one, there is a dearth of larger social consciousness among the masses regarding the problem of farmers in general and these movements in specific. Social workers need to take this burden on their heads to ensure that not only the information is disseminated smoothly and effectively but also a larger audience can be built who not only can be aware of the condition of farmers but can also empathize with it, thus providing the base of mobilization of these groups for future causes.
Library service through mobile technology is a recent trend in library service. Mobile technology and its development have given rise to the excitement of faculty and student fraternity. This type of infrastructure needed by libraries to provide such services. The awareness about technologies like Mobile based services, Augmented Reality, Gamification, Internet of Things applications. The method opted for the study is descriptive and the tool used for collecting information is web survey. Literature related to emerging trends in libraries was collected from similar projects and other related articles from web. The project was started by analysing the technological developments in various libraries, kinds and new trends that emerged recently. Relevant data regarding the topic is also collected from scholarly publications and online databases to review the benefits, usage and the importance of emerging technology trends in libraries. This topic deals with new developments and techniques that are evolving in libraries. Some of the new trends are identified in this work. The limitation of the study is that, as many innovations are being introduced and also developed, only a selected number of technologies are included in the study.
Community diagnosis is defined as a comprehensive assessment of the state of an entire community in relation to its social, economic, physical and biological environment. It is a process of examining the patterns of disease or health status in the community in order to promote health, prevent disease and manage health services for the community people. As per the curriculum of Tribhuwan University, B.Sc. Nursing first year, we were provided an opportunity to fulfill the practicum of community health nursing in the assigned area Shanti Tole and Teentara Tole, Pokhara, Lekhnath, Ritthepani-27 from 18th June to 14th July 2017. Total population of Ritthepani was 4529, male population was 2100 and female population was 2429. Each of the 13 students was assigned with 10 different families for community diagnosis in order to promote the health of the individual, family and community. The main objective of community diagnosis was to find out the health related aspects and to provide preventive, promotive, curative and rehabilitative services to the individual and the community as a whole. All the findings were presented among the key members of the community. On survey, total population of 130 houses was found 565, among them 296 were male population and 269 were female population. Sanitation of the community was inappropriate. People were not using the health facilities effectively so they were found suffering from different kinds of diseases most commonly gastritis. The common health seeking practice was going to governmental hospital and traditional healers.
The main objectives of the research is to understand the perception of the local people on climate change and examine the impact of such change on agriculture and livestock management practices among the people. Moreover the research also attempted to analyze the present adaptive strategies of the local people which ultimately increase their adaptive capacity and resilience in the face of change. The framework of cognitive anthropology and human ecology helped to compare and analyze the difference in the perception about change in climatic variables and climate related risk and disasters, their impact on agriculture and livestock management practices and present coping and adaptive strategies followed by the people in their respective surroundings. Furthermore, the study also used the sustainable livelihood framework to assess the climate change impacts on agriculture and livestock systems of the studied communities. It attempts to understand the perception of the people on climate change through the change in the climate related parameters such as precipitation, temperature, and mist and dews and climate related extremes and disasters such as the long drought, heavy rainfall, landslide and soil erosion, windstorms and hailstorms.
