Research

Overview

We focus on conducting action-oriented research to  address knowledge gaps across ecological, economic, and social dimensions, enabling community-based forest management.

Our work addresses,

1. Ecological questions focused on sustainable production and harvest of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) and co-management and protection of wildlife,

2. Socio-economic questions on creation of sustained benefits from the sale of NTFPs and of equitable benefit sharing, 

3. Dynamics in claim-making and assertion of forest rights,  

4. Governance questions about impacts of diverse forest tenure regimes in central India.
