Dialogue on policy for Community Conserved Areas in Nagaland

The workshop on "Does Nagaland need a policy for Community Conserved Areas? – Policy dialogue" was held recently in Nagaland. The objective of this workshop was to address the need for a policy on Community-Conserved Areas in Nagaland and to brainstorm on the modalities of developing such a policy including legal, financial and other implications. This workshop is the first in a series under a CI-Japan, GEF-Satoyama sponsored study on, 'Mainstreaming Community–Conserved Areas for Biodiversity Conservation in Nagaland' that is being carried out by TERI with the support of the Nagaland Forest Department.
