Forests & Governance

Forests & Governance
The goal of the Forests and Governance Programme is to understand what combinations of governance regimes, economic policies, cultural changes and biophysical measures will lead to better forest governance in south Asia. This means more sustainable, equitable and livelihood-enhancing outcomes, and strong democratic processes. The focus is on rights, institutions and governance mechanisms, ecological and sustainable use of natural resources, and economic and cultural dependence.
