4. In the year 2014, GlobalHunt Foundation initiated the “Click, Conserve & Care” global program,
The program also strengthened GHF's commitment as an official supporter for the United Nations
Environment Programme (UNEP), World Environment Day (WED).
I am pleased to inform our supporters that with an overwhelming response received last year, we
decided to continue the program in form of an annual series. The Click Conserve & Care (3C) has
been transcended into a platform to unite people across the globe by encouraging them to showcase
the blend of their unique culture along with the environments and physical spaces.
The 3C program thrives on the principles of sustainability which is reflective in the entire modus
operandi, as one of the leading E initiative, the program with the aid of digital technology has
successfully accomplished the purpose of bringing together diverse blend of people across the
globe.
The 3C program of 2015 has provided us with an opportunity to connect with large audience of
people situated across the globe by engaging with them and understanding their perspectives and
concerns towards society. We aspire to make 3C program a crucial medium for people to convey
their deep rooted and significant messages by sharing their images depicting the varied challenges
surrounding them within their social, environment and cultural contexts.
We align the overall theme of the program in sync with the broader theme as proposed by UNEP
WED, and for the year 2015 the 3C theme "Preserving our Future" further enhanced the UNEP WED
2015 title “Seven Billion Dreams. One Planet. Consume with Care.” Our endeavor was to bring at the
forefront the concept of sustainability by relooking at those traditional and conventional practices,
way of life which continue to be in harmony with entire ecosystems of the world.
I would like to thank our award sponsor - The Himalaya Drug Company for supporting the
programme and encouraging the participants and young awardees. Most importantly, I would like
to thank all the participants across the globe from diverse continents for sharing their eloquent art
works and cutting edge issues that are strongly implicating our social, environmental and cultural
milieu and require our special attention so as to emerge with immediate solutions for our upcoming
generations.

5. One of the most awaited programs of GlobalHunt Foundation is “Click, Conserve & Care" - (3C), a global
digital photograph initiative which is held every year to support the World Environment Day (WED) of the
United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). To further strengthen our commitment in sustainable
responsibility and creating sustainable solutions, I am pleased to assert that the 3C initiative is an
innovative program that has successfully managed to place people, places and problems of the world on a
universal platform and inspires every global citizen to engage and from solutions to mitigate the potential
challenges that will affect our planet and its people in the coming times. Let me read you through some of
the salient and significant features of the 3C initiative, something as How we did it? :-
Since the 3C initiative coincided with the
celebration of World Environment Day, we believed
that it will be appropriate to conduct the overall
modality of the program in an environmentally
sustainable manner. Hence, we conceived an open
platform in form of a website
www.globalhuntfoundation.org/3CContest with
ease of access, this IT mechanism enabled
enthusiastic participants to submit their
photographs through a simplified submission form.
It also aided the organizers to collate the
worldwide entries received in huge numbers and
ensured updates pertaining to the contest details,
themes, rules and communication with the
contestants, in a timely manner. Most significantly,
we ensured that the certificates and the outcome
report of the 3C initiative too were published in a
soft copy version.
With a feeling of renewed zeal and zest, we kicked
off the IInd Annual series 2015 of the 3C program
with a strong aim to unite the world by opening the
contest to people across all ages, religion, race,
gender and regions from all over the globe.

contours of sustainability through its products
and its operations.
We completed our cycle of the program by
involving sponsor such as The Himalaya Drug
Company which has deeply extended its
commitments towards consciously inculcating
social responsibility by conducting business in a
The contest received an overwhelming response
from our enthusiastic participants across the
globe such as Ireland, Poland, Philippines, Russia,
Italy, Iran, South Africa, Philippines, Vietnam,
Bangladesh, India, Canada, Iraq, United States.,
Lithuania, Lebanon, United Kingdom, Portugal,
Indonesia, Azerbaijan, UAE and many more. With
more than 100 diverse photographs received, the
program emerged as a significant platform of
peer learning through sharing of each other's
regional, cultural and environmental contexts.
The winners were selected through rigorous and
intense screening processes, through a
declaration form duly signed by the participants
we ensured that the participants certify that the
photographs submitted were their original piece
of work.
After several screening processes, our judging

6. Facebook, Twitter, You Tube, Instagram, WhatsApp - the list connecting us to technology is endless. We
spend all our free time networking, conversing and reading online. While technology has become our
constant companion, sometimes even replacing real relationships, our world is turning grey with every
passing day. Our new reality is cement blocks replacing green lands, vanishing ecosystems and depleting
water tables. In pursuit of peace, the newest luxury is holidaying in green spaces. But who is taking
responsibility for the graying of our globe?
Himalaya’s dream has always been about making people happier and healthier around the world. While
fulfilling this dream, we are doing everything possible to make sustainable business choices environmentally
and socially. From reducing our carbon footprint to reshaping the dreams of Indian prisoners through our
CSR initiatives, we have been taking responsibility to dream big and deliver with care. Because, we see how
our dream has the power to cause a paradigm shift in society.
The expression of our dreams has the power to influence our nation. Let us make a conscious choice to express
our dreams in harmony with our planet. It is this choice that will become the legacy for future generations.

innovative and democratic initiative that encourages people across all age g�oups
and all count�ies to come for�ard and submit their ar��orks. The year 2015 holds
a special sig�ificance as we decided to perceive environment with an
unconventional lens. Our aim was to move beyond the usual presumptions of
visualizing environment with a unilateral thinking.

and adopting a holistic view involving social, cult�ral, political, economic along
with the physical aspects of environment. Therefore, we consciously emphasized
on key themes which are int�insic to the overall pur�iew of environment and the
United Nations Environment Prog�amme Theme 2015 - Seven Billion Lives. We

All lives matters
This was a photo taken in Baltimore during the Freddie Gray riots. I live
about a mile from where they started and of course everyone in our
community was affected. In Fells Point Baltimore there was a building
that the tenants had put signs in every window in support of the “black
lives matter” movement. Oddly enough, the entire Fells Point community
was not too happy about the display, more then a few people came up to me
as I was taking the pictures. Right in the middle of the set up, 2 men, one
black one white just happened to be walking down the sidewalk laughing
having a good time completely oblivious to all the fuss around them….it
was just pure luck that they walked directly in front of the building and
the signs laughing and just being friends. It was a perfect dichotomy of the
strife that we are facing. Many of us like those two simply dont see color
and it does not factor into how we treat someone or if we choose to be their
friends or not. They served as a perfect reminder of how similar we all are
and how much alike we all are if we can just stop seeing a white guy or a
black man and just seeing…”a man”.

The myth of the industrialized city, the city life and the comfort of modernity, have meant that the last
decades have been characterized by a progressive abandonment of rural towns, with the consequent
detachment from the work based on the ability manual for the cold mechanics. My picture shows an old
man which is keeper of the shoemaker's art, in his store is still real the smell and the light of a past time.

The lady in the picture is from a rural part of West Bengal, India. She earns her
livelihood and feeds her family by making beautiful handmade potteries. Her
daughter is studying in the school but still interested in the techniques involved
in the process of making. Whenever the girl gets spare time she comes and sits
beside her mother. They are spending a happy moment during the course of
work. This is a form of handicraft and requires extreme skillfulness. The
geometric pattern of the potteries and the bonding between the two people leads
us to the beginning of a story.Color tone, mood, light also helped to give the
picture an art form.
