Gender Responsive Incentive-Based Mechanisms for Sustainable Forest Management
|
The future of forests is inextricably linked to gender wherein adopting a gender-centric approach is necessary to achieve desired collaborations during the implementation and in the outcomes of performance-based, incentivised, and community-led management of forest resources. While both men and women are legitimate actors in the consumption and conservation of forest resources, they perceive these resources and their respective roles quite differently. They differ in their knowledge, utility of forest resources, and, most importantly, the agency to make decisions, which steers and shapes their concerns and priorities.
The global discourse on sustainable forest management is now increasingly being directed towards policy interventions that focus on incentivising community-driven forest governance while constructively addressing gender norms. |
