Title: A Social and Cultural Perspective of Women and Community Forestry in Nepal
Language of title: English
Author/Creator: Gyanu Chhetri
One Sentence Summary: The article attempts to show the enthusiastic participation of women in community forestry in Nepal.

Description: The article attempts to show the enthusiastic participation of women in community forestry in Nepal. The article reveals that women were involved in development activities and programmes before the decade for women 1975-1985 (or even from time immemorial) and will continue to do as long as they are given responsibilities to fulfill. In the Nepali socio-economic context, women's workload is believed to be heavier in the rural areas of the country compared to that of men. Community forestry is launched with the view that, since women are the primary users of forest products, it would be logical that they be given responsibilities for its conservation also. The article comes to the conclusion that the workload of women in rural area will continue to remain after developmental activities and they have set an example in managing the community forest successfully.
