COEP Janeev Club (previously COEP Environment Club) had evolved from an environmental project initially undertaken by a group of Civil Engineering students. The club realized that all environmental and social issues are interconnected, and do not exist in isolation. Thus, it was decided to transform the club with a view to increase its scope by working on social issues as well. In the year 2011, the Environment Club was transformed into Janeev Club (Marathi: जाणीव, meaning: consciousness) as the socio-environmental club of COEP.
The club aims at sensitizing students about various social and environmental issues and enhancing their knowledge regarding the same. The club conducts various activities like lectures and seminars by intellectuals and activists, documentary screenings, classic film screenings, discussions, street plays, awareness campaigns, tree plantation, poetry recitation, etc. Janeev Club members meet every Wednesday at 6 pm in Applied Mechanics Department in front of Boat Club. The club is open to all, runs democratically and disregards any hierarchical structure for its functioning.
अंधार भेदणाऱ्या जाणीवांना सामोरे जाऊ या. आपल्या संवेदना जागवू या.
पर्यावरणाच्या पलीकडेही डोकावून पाहू या. जागवू या... एक "जाणीव"!
