In recent times, communities have undergone radical changes at every level. These are:

1. Advancement in transport and communication systems has been an integral part of our man-made environment. For example, in ancient times, there was a development of animal-drawn carts due to domestication of animals and invention of the wheel. This human quality to improve the environment has led to development of advanced modes of transport such as railways, airways, waterways, roadways etc.
2. Developments in information technology have changed the concepts and modes of traditional communication. These developments have provided us with facilities for inter-personal and social interfacing which have resulted in cutting across the barriers of time and distance.
3. There has been a boon in the IT sector. This has bought distant countries and continents closer to us. It has lead to the transformation of a wide world into a global village. Internet facilities, teleconferencing, webcam chats, etc have opened new communication doors in the world. Thus, connectivity is immediate and instantaneous.
