More than 40 representatives from communities, govt, NGOs, UN and donor agencies came together to explore best practices and the way forward at the ‘Regional Dialogue on Women’s Inclusion in Landscape Management in Asia’ held in Chiang Mai, Thailand, on 7-9 October 2014.
The dialogue, supported by WOCAN, The Forest Dialogue (TFD) and RECOFTC – The Center for People and Forests, aimed to develop participants’ understanding of the current state of women’s exclusion/inclusion in landscape management, which includes sustainable forestry and farming practices and land-use approaches.
Participants identified the challenges to designing and implementing women-inclusive initiatives in landscape management, as well as shared experiences, practical approaches and actions that support women’s inclusion in Asia.
