MORE WOMEN LEADING THE COMMUNITY FOREST- NEPAL



In Baijapur VDC of Banke District, west Nepal, women participation in a forest user group executive committee has been overwhelming. There are nine community forests in the village in which two user groups are led by women and each of the user group has 5 women representatives. In a way it has also enhanced their leadership skills. Profit incurred from the community forest is being spent to improve the socio economic status of women.
