It in now almost a decade since Joint Forest Management found
roots in India as a principle of forest management. The Indian National Forest Policy of
1988 has put considerable stress on the livelihoods of forest dependent communities and
the role they can play in the conserving forests . After the circular of the Indian
Ministry of Environment and Forests in 1990 which has been reproduced on the JFM page ,
many state forest departments in India have passed their own resolutions for joint forest
management . This section reproduces these resolutions . Click on a state from the list to
