    locate them while answering some of the questions.

    A pioneering new book, Gender and Green Governance, explores a central

    question: If women had adequate representation in forestry institutions, would it makea difference to them their communities and forests as a national resource? Interview

    with the author.

    Why has access to forests been such a conflict-ridden issue?

    This is not surprising. Forests constitute not just community and national wealth,

    but global wealth. But for millions, forests are also critical for livelihoods and their

    daily lives.

    Your first book, Cold Hearths and Barren Slopes (1986), was about forests.Is there an evolution of argument here?

    Yes indeed. In Cold Hearths and Barren Slopes, I had argued that social forestry,with its top - down implementation and focus on commercial species was neither'social' nor 'forestry', and would protect neither forests nor village livelihoods. The

    answer, I argued, lay in allowing forest communities to manage local forests. Finally,

    in 1990, India launched the joint forest management programme and Nepal alsostarted community forestry. So, I decided to see for myself how community forestrywas actually doing.

    Between 1995 and 1999, I travelled extensively across India and Nepal andfound a paradox . Forests were indeed becoming greener but women's problem of fire-wood shortages persisted and in many cases had become more acute . Also, despite

    their high stakes in forests, women continued to be largely excluded from forest

    management. I coined the term "participatory exclusions" to describe this. However,the current book is less about women's exclusion. I ask: What if women were presentin forest governance? What difference would that make?

    But has this question not been raised before?

    Economists researching environmental collective action have paid little attention

    to gender. Scholars from other disciplines focusing on gender and governance havebeen concerned mainly with women's near absence from governance institutions. Thepresumption is that once women are present all good things will follow. But can we

    assume this? No rural women's relationship with forests is complex.

    On the one hand, their everyday dependence on forests for firewood, fodder, etc,

    creates a strong stake in conservation. On the other, the same dependence can compel

    them to extract heavily from forests. As one landless woman told me: 'Of course, it

    hurts me to cut a green branch but what do I do if my children are hungry'? Taking an

    agnostic position, I decided to test varied propositions, controlling for other factors.

    What did you find?

    First women's greater presence enhances their effective voice in decision -making. And there is a critical mass effect. If forest management groups have 25 - 33percent female members in their executive committees it significantly increases the

    likelihood of women attending meeting, speaking up and holding office. However, the

    inclusion of landless women makes a particular difference. When present in suficient

    numbers they are more likely to attend meetings and voice their concerns than landedwomen. So what matters is not just including more women, but more poor women.

    Second, and unexpectedly, groups with more women typically make stickerforest use rules. Why is this the case? Mainly because they receive poorer forests fromthe forest department. To regenerate these, they have to sacrifice their immediateneeds. Women from households with some land have some fallback. But remarkably

    even in groups with more landless women, although extraction is higher, they stillbalance self - interest with conservation goals, when placed in decision - makingpositions.

    Third, groups with more women outperform other groups in improving forestconditions, despite getting poorer forests. Involving women substantially improvesprotection and conflict resolution, helps the use of their knowledge of localbiodiversity and raises children's awareness about conservation.

Industry reports indicate that Indians spendabout Rs.30000 crore a year on charitable ..(69).. and this includes the money spentby companies on their corporate social responsibility programmes. This is not ..(70)..and Indians, especially the corporate czars, have much more ability to give. In a
