- W2345836700 abstract "By and large, the gender dimension in biodiversity management has been neglected in India. In almost all government-sponsored in situ and ex situ conservation efforts, gender considerations have yet to be integrated into the culture of management. Only in recent years has gender come to be acknowledged as an important variable in conservation and management. In community conservation efforts, there are clearly defined gender roles, particularly in the areas of plant and seed selection and preservation. In a temple at Along in Arunachal Pradesh, for example, credit is given to a woman for domesticating rice. Women’s role in biodiversity conservation has been overlooked, despite the fact that women have a profound knowledge of plants and animals in their environment. Although the natural resources of the environment provide the basis for both women’s and men’s livelihoods, women have traditionally used a variety of indigenous plants, trees and animals and so have a direct stake in their preservation. Loss of habitats and biodiversity ultimately affects the underprivileged, the majority of who are women. This is why women have participated in large numbers in movements like the Chipko Andolan. Although they possess knowledge about biodiversity conservation, poor women are often left with no choice but to exploit natural resources in order to survive. There is therefore urgent need for studies on the gender dimension in biodiversity conservation and management.Women play a central role in the conservation, management and use of biodiversity, the Earth’s rich animal and plant resources, on which life depends. Their contribution, however, is often overlooked. They are “invisible” partners from grassroots to policy level. If biodiversity is to survive, women and men must play an equal part in its management. There is therefore an urgent need to consider gender - which does or uses what and how and why - in development efforts, to promote true partnership and ensure the sustainable conservation and use of biodiversity now and in the future. The paper highlights dynamic communities in different stages of transition and development, where livelihood security may conflict with the requirements of biodiversity management." @default.
