NeBIO Research Journal:
NeBIO is a quarterly journal published by North East Centre for Environmental Education and Research (NECEER), Imphal (Manipur). The journal is first of its kind in the North East region, which is mainly concerned with the conservation of biodiversity of North Eastern states of India.
The journal aimed not only to encourage research works but also to bridge the gap between various forms of methodologies, perspectives and knowledge production. The need for publishing such a journal was also prompted by the fact that there has not been such an interactions between all those engaged in research areas and environmental education so far in the region.
