Nature Green Future Trust (NGFT) is excited to announce a live webinar focusing on Social Forestry Development in Gujarat State. This event is set to explore the pivotal role of social forestry in promoting sustainable environmental practices, providing participants with a deep dive into the advancements, challenges, and opportunities in this critical area.
About Social Forestry
Social forestry is a vital concept that integrates forest management with the needs of local communities. Unlike traditional forestry, which often prioritizes large-scale commercial logging, social forestry emphasizes the involvement of local populations in forest management. It aims to balance ecological and economic objectives, ensuring that communities benefit directly from forest resources while also contributing to environmental conservation.
In Gujarat, social forestry has played a crucial role in improving green cover, combating desertification, and enhancing the livelihoods of rural communities. Through the sustainable management of forests, social forestry initiatives help restore degraded lands, support biodiversity, and mitigate the impacts of climate change.
