Practice to Policy Impact of Forest and Nature Conservation, Governance and Equity on Indigenous Community

Abstract

"This proposed multi-stakeholder dialogue titled ‘Practice to Policy Impact of Nature Conservation, Governance, Equity on Indigenous Communities’ will focus on the relation between indigenous as well as traditional communities, natural resources and the diverse governance tiers important to promote conservation. In doing so, it will aim to highlight the relationship between local communities (men, women, youths), the state, including the government departments indigenous institutes, social movements, civil societies, funding agencies and other private institutions including the role of decentralised local governments. Our panel aims to throw light on the less discussed issue about how some multilevel governance offers favourable conditions than others for nature conservation by indigenous communities."
