| Summary, etc | Forest conservation for environmental sustainability is a fundamental task for forest governance, and the role of women in this process is highly contentious. In many regions, tribal women have long been the custodians of forests and play an indispensable role in the sustainable use and conservation of natural resources. Tribal women’s participation in “community forestry” can give them a voice and make use of their knowledge to effectively preserve the forest environment. Community forest institutions (CFIs) in India are mainly governed under joint forest management (JFM). Literature reveals significant gaps in gender-inclusive collective action within CFIs for natural resource management. Based on the secondary data sources, the paper tries to assess the institutional designs of forest governance in India, Odisha. Further, the paper explores the role of tribal women’s contribution to forest conservation through CFIs and their impact. The research also highlights the challenges they face, including equity concerns, inaccessibility, restricted rights, and control in CFI. The study further identifies policy implications for the tribal women. Incorporating a special focus on Odisha, the paper calls for a paradigm shift toward more inclusive governance models that recognise the rights, access, and knowledge of tribal women, thereby recognising their contributions to conservation. – Reproduced http://www.iipabiharbranch.org/upload/BJPA_Vol.%20XXII%20No%201_S%20%20Jam-June%202025.pdf |
