| Abstract | The conflicts between human beings and natural environment have become a global issue and humans understandings on the living environment have been pushed onto a new step. In recent years, social-ecological systems as research objective have been a noble perspective for sustainable development and global changes exploring. The Resilience Alliance (RA) is an international research team concentrating on the interdisciplinary field that explores the dynamics of social-ecological systems and formulates relatively complete theoretical system. The body of knowledge developed by the organization is comprised of a series of key concepts of adaptive cycles, panarchy, resilience, transformability and adaptability and provides a foundation for sustainable development theory and practice. Some ideas and concepts about social-ecological systems conceptual framework developed by the Resilience Alliance are introduced in this paper. Social-ecological system is a complex adaptive system that is unpredictable, self-organization, nonlinear, diversity and multiple regimes, and can be described in terms of a cycle, named adaptive cycle that is a heuristic model and can usefully describe the dynamics mechanism of social-ecological systems. Resilience, adaptability and transformation are social-ecological systems of three attributes. Panarchy is an expression of hierarchy as a nested set of adaptive cycles. Resilience is the capacity of a system to absorb disturbance and reorganize while undergoing change so as to still retain essentially the same function, structure, identity, and feedbacks. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
