We
plan to brand each social & health issue.
So we share them separately and not within the country.
We
know that governments, corporates, funding agencies, philanthropists,
media, NGOs, volunteers are interested in issue programmes
in their country.
So within the issue, we share programmes countrywise.
Global examples are India and Thane district in India.
We started with portals on social sector in India &
Thane in 1999.
If it was other country, we would have taken that as example
country.
Citizens in every country face challenges on many social
& health issues.
Government Ministry of various countries and the schemes
they have must be seen by many other country governments.
Some can be replicated (better word for copying), some can
be modified based on community & country size &
culture.
We
want issues to benefit and want to do it in such a way that
nobody need to come to us to know the details.
So the simple option is share links to the programmes directly
handled by NGO Brands or supported by corporates, funding
agencies, philanthropists, celebrities. We want volunteers
for many issues and we can not handle millions of present
& potental volunteers and thousands of present &
potential donors. That's why we share links, so that volunteers
and donors can directly contact related organisation.
In a way,
we are selfish. Selfish to save our time, so that we can
invest it in all issues, all countries face.

Teens
who can describe negative emotions can stave off depression
Teenagers who can describe their negative emotions in precise
and nuanced ways are better protected against depression
than their peers who can't. That's the conclusion of a new
study about negative emotion differentiation, or NED --
the ability to make fine-grained distinctions between negative
emotions and apply precise labels.

Brain Research Sheds Light On Mental Illness
Researchers say a massive genetic analysis of the human
brain has yielded new insights into the underpinnings of
psychiatric diseases such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder
and autism.
Scientists at 15 institutions analyzed nearly 2,000 brains,
and their findings are detailed in 11 studies published
