One of the founding believes on which the ecological informatics initiative at the Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management – Kerala [IIITM-K] is built is that environmental problems are not environmental Per se . They are social.

Activity at IIITM-K is academic in nature. However, over time, we have realized that academics encompasses much more than class room constructs. Hence we are reaching out.

We 4 Us is a platform that attempts to make Thiruvananthapuram an enviably clean and pleasantly cool city. We welcome you to this non-partisan, apolitical platform.

Let us pool our ideas, resources and energy to explore, if we can use the coming months to contribute to the betterment of our beloved city. With a critical mass, we shall act.

Remember the lines   “We are the world, we are the children, we are the ones who make a brighter day ………….  .”
