Tribal leaders discuss challenges of modernity

Dimapur, April 15 (MExN): Under the initiative of NEZCC, leaders from various tribal communities based in Dimapur met at NEZCC to discuss about “the challenges faced by the tribal society ushered in by the advent of modernity and its impact in the society especially on the younger urban generation.”

A press release informed that the tribal communities of Nagaland stationed in Dimapur resolved to jointly organize Community Learning Programme (CLP) under the aegis of NEZCC at NEZCC Park. Speaking on the importance of an action plan with active participation of communities concerned, Lipokmar Tzudir, Director, NEZCC explained the need, objectives and focus of the CLP, the note added. He stated that customs and practices form the main fabric of our culture; hence its continuity for posterity should be emphasized and addressed before it is too late.

NEZCC will sponsor three resource persons and 25 students from each community to impart training for 10 consecutive days on a cycle covering all the tribes in a span of 160 days beginning May 2014.  The programme is scheduled to start from May 19 at the NEZCC Park that will be open to interested public.
