In hill region of Uttarakhand state, women play a distinctive role
not only in household but in daily routine activities like fuel
wood collection, livestock raising, farming operations etc. Hill
women in spite of their major role, are resource poor and ignorant
about their own problems and sufferings. Hill women use traditional
stoves or chulhas for cooking which emanates smoke. Since, kitchens
in the most hilly homes are poorly ventilated, the smoke gets
accumulated in the house. Prolonged exposure to high levels of
pollutants has an adverse impact on the health of women. Although,
enough viable and adoptive technologies have been developed but
many of these are not reaching to the women residing in remote
areas. Thus, an attempt was made to create awareness among the hill
women of Uttarakhand through the low cost communication aids.

satisfaction, factors affecting job satisfaction, relationship of
socio-personal characteristics of agricultural scientists of

collected from 300 respondents, 100 from each university. The
findings revealed that all the agricultural scientists were highly
satisfied and fewer differences were found among the universities.
