After introducing Indian forests, forestry and policy, Dr Bahuguna gave a fascinating account of recent developments and progress towards Joint Forest Management in India.

Dr Bahuguna from the Indian Ministry of Environment & Forests visited ECTF as part of a world tour following his receipt of the Commonwealth Forestry Association Queen's Award for Forestry. We were delighted to host him in Edinburgh for two days to share ideas and experiences.
