* As, originally, the Indian Society of Naturalists, INSONA was established in the year 1975 by the former Maharaja of Baroda, the late Fatehsinghrao P. Gaekwad, as its Founding President, and with Dr Gunavant M. Oza as its Founding General Secretary. For the past 15 years, the latter has spearheaded various activities, campaigns, and crusades, on behalf of INSONA and such affiliates as our Foundation for Environmental Conservation, aimed at the common well-being of Mankind and Nature. A notable example of such collaboration is the World Campaign for The Biosphere, and an outcome of Dr Oza's personal dedication is the quarterly journal Environmental Awareness, which now has an impressive supporting panel of internationally-known Consulting Editors.

Mrs Premlata Oza, Joint Secretary of INSONA, has extended several aspects of the environmental and conservational movements to schoolchildren and women in India, in a manner that should set a worthy example for other countries and regions. — Ed.
