Forest fires, climate change and tendu patta: Evidence to improve policy outcomes

The webinar is being organized in the backdrop of the increasing incidences of forest fires in the country, and their adverse impact on the forests, especially biodiversity loss and carbon emissions. It particularly seeks to address the information and understanding gap with respect to the causes of forest fires. During the webinar, iFOREST will share findings from an ongoing research initiative on forest fires and tendu patta collection practices, which underlines the relationship between the two, and the climate change impact of such fires. This will be followed by a panel discussion among a varied group of experts.
