Description/notes
Vasundhara is an Action Research & Policy Advocacy Organisation working on Natural Resources Governance, Conservation, and Sustainable Livelihoods. Vasundhara was founded in 1991 and got registered in 1992. Our constant efforts have highlighted the critical role forests play in sustaining rural livelihoods. Our focus has been to facilitate the reflection of Livelihood Interests of forest-dependent communities. –especially women – in government policies and also to create an environment in which the primary owners and users of forests are economically and politically empowered to have exclusive control over their lives and livelihoods.
