impact on the forest dependent poor in India

Outputs

Multiscale mapping
Multiscale mapping is an attempt to locate forest dependent poors in three states of India. This type of mapping shows spatial relationship between distribution of poverty (for various chosen indicators) and investment in participatory forestry at state level and finer resolutions with respect to the forest cover present in the different districts of the states.
