Environmental Justice in Nepal: Origins, Struggles, and Prospects

Examining the experiences of two distinct indigenous fishing communities: Bote, Majhi, and Musahar around the south-central lowlands and Sonaha in the mid-west of Nepal, the chapter on “The River People and the Parks: Political Ecology of Conservation and Indigenous Livelihood in Nepal’s Terai” by Paudel et al. highlights the interlinkages between different factors for causing conservation injustice for poor and marginalised Indigenous People in and around PAs in the lowland Nepal.

The chapter is published in the Routledge Studies in Environmental Justice, ‘Environmental Justice in Nepal: Origins, Struggles, and Prospects‘.
