World Bank Document Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized E2214 v4 Introduction to BCRLIP THE WORLD BANK IN INDIA he Biodiversity Cons ervation and Rural Livelihood Improvement Project (BCRLIP) was conceptualized in 2005 to resolve the T confl ict between man and animal among rural people living on the fringes of important protected areas. The primary aim of the project is to engage local communities in sustaining biodiversity conservation while improving their livelihood prospects. The project area, called a landscape, includes protected areas like national parks, sanctuaries, tiger reserves and forests rich in fl ora and fauna outside the protected areas. Six landscapes have been selected under the project. These include the Upper Indus landscape (Changthang) in Jammu and Kashmir. Changthang falls in the District of Leh and includes the Changthang wildlife sanctuary. Askot in Pithoragarh District of Uttarakhand includes the Askot musk deer sanctuary. Little Rann of Kutch in Gujarat falls in Kutch and includes the Hadakiya and Kachch Creeks and the Wild Ass Sanctuary; Satpura in Madhya Pradesh covers the districts of Hoshangabad, Chhindwara and Betul and includes the Satpura National Park and the Bori and Panchmarhi wildlife sanctuaries. Dampa in Mizoram falls in Mamit district and includes the Dampa tiger reserve. Agasthiyaramalai, spread across Tamil Nadu and Kerala, runs through 13 districts (Theni,Tiruneveli, Srivilliputtur, Kanyakumari, Virudnagar, Thiruvanthapuram, Konni, Punalur, Thenmala, Achencoil,and forest divisions of Shendurney, Neyyar and Pappara and includes one tiger reserve (Kalakkad Mundanthurai Tiger reserve) and fi ve wildlife sanctuaries: Grizzled Squirrel WLS, Kanayakumari WLS in Tamil Nadu and Shendurney WLS, Neyyar WLS and Pappara WLS in Kerala. The National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA), under the Ministry of Environment and Forests, is the nodal body for the project. The BCRLIP is based on the lessons learned from the earlier India Eco-Development Project that focussed only on protected areas. However, it has a much wider canvass as it encompasses not only the PAs but also the areas contiguous to it. CONSULTATIONS Consultants PEACE and ATREE had the responsibility of assisting the seven states selected for this project to develop detailed landscape-specifi c plans through a consultative process. The forest and wildlife departments, which are the fi eld level implementing agencies for the project, began consultations in 2005 with all stakeholders within each of the selected landscapes. 1 They had discussions with private and public sector agencies operating in the area; with civil society organizations; and most importantly with local communities, to develop plans for the sustainable management of the area’s biodiversity while ensuring livelihood needs of the people living there. THE WORLD BANK IN INDIA Since the areas of some of the landscapes like Agasthiyarmalai and Changthang are much larger than the traditional PAs, their management has to be different. There was need for partnerships and coalitions with a wide range of actors and stakeholders. Such multi-stakeholder forums and local landscape foundations require a focus on transparency and information dissemination to ensure that all views and concerns are addressed in the management of the landscape. So far, for each landscape there has been at least one landscape level and one state level meeting. In addition, all communities living in villages falling within the landscape were consulted. These include panchayat members, women, village elders, Hill Council members (as in Changthang), agriculturists, herdsmen, fi shermen and traders. Issues During the consultations, concerns were expressed on the need for balance between biodiversity conservation and improvement of rural livelihoods. The common issues that surfaced across all the landscapes were: ■ Rights of people not settled although some protected areas were notifi ed in 1973 ■ Stringent provisions of Wildlife(P) Act 1972 limit livelihood options of those who live within landscape ■ Man-animal confl ict ■ No compensation for livestock losses ■ Need for greater livelihood options ■ Poaching, hunting ■ Disruption of land use ■ Declining agriculture production resulting in livelihood insecurity ■ Remoteness of villages leading to their marginalization ■ Migration ■ High illiteracy and poverty, lack of development ■ Lack of health and education services ■ Declining traditional wool crafts dues to poor marketing and promotion ■ Religious tourism not creating local employment and outside porters destroying homes and habitat 2 ■ No proper rail connection leading to inadequate marketing and loss of income ■ Construction of check dams on seasonal rivers and streams leading to low fi sh turnover ■ Ignorance about various agricultural and other government schemes THE WORLD BANK IN INDIA • Lack of non-land based income options ■ Remote location ■ Lack of roads leading to high transportation costs Opportunities The remoteness of the villages within the landscape has deprived communities of the benefi ts of development. Although the project cannot resolve all concerns like lack of education, water, health infrastructure, electricity and communications, it does provide an opportunity to take stock of these issues and address them. A crucial component in any project is the convergence of government and line departments and this project will help to facilitate this process with greater transparency. In addition, with the recent establishment of the NTCA and the promulgation of the Scheduled Tribes and other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act 2006, there will be new opportunities to engage with communities to sustain and manage natural resources to support rural livelihoods Contacts Agasthiyarmalai: Mr KJ Varughese, Dampa: Dr VN Singh, Chief Wildlife Warden, Kerala LR Thanga, Chief Wildlife Warden, Chief Conservator of Forests (wildlife), 0471-2529238.

  • Geopolitical Relations and Regional Restructuring: the Case of the Kumaon Himalaya, India
    2012 Vol. 66 · No. 2 · 91–107 GEOPOLITICAL RELATIONS AND REGIONAL RESTRUCTURING: THE CASE OF THE KUMAON HIMALAYA, INDIA Martin Gerwin and Christoph Bergmann With 4 figures, 1 table and 1 photo Received 06. September 2011 · Accepted 02. May 2012 Summary: While the formation and regulation of international borders have long been on the agenda of geographical and social science research, the actions of populations residing in state-peripheries have received inadequate attention so far. Our case study focuses on the so-called ‘Bhotiyas’ in North India’s Kumaon Himalaya. The Bhotiyas consist of several valley communities who were formerly involved in trans-Himalayan trade. Their ethnic identities and livelihoods remain closely linked to the area of the Sino-Indian border, which was sealed as a result of the war between the two countries in 1962. We contend that these borderlanders are not passive victims of geopolitically induced interventions, but rather active partici- pants in the restructuring of their contested live worlds. Based on the assumption that geopolitical realities are forged across a variety of scale-levels, we analyze shifting livelihoods in terms of both a specific socio-cultural context and broader webs of relations to which people have access or from which they are excluded. This offers new insight into highland-lowland interactions of mountain systems and brings the utilization of natural resources more strongly to the fore of borderland studies. Zusammenfassung: �����������Obwohl die �����������������������������������������������������ntstehung und die Aufrechterhaltung internationaler �����������������������������renzen schon einiges an Auf- merksamkeit in der �eographie und den Sozialwissenschaften erhalten haben, findet das Leben der in diesen staatlichen Randgebieten wohnenden Menschen bisher erst wenig Beachtung.
