Research is one of the important
activities at IIFM through which IIFM constantly strives
to develop frontiers of knowledge in various areas of forest and
natural resource management like climate change, environment
-behaviour linkages, participatory management, governance,NTFP
and medicinal plants etc. Research activities at the institute
are focused on finding such applications of management concepts,
tools and techniques that can assist a forest manager in
achieving effectiveness and efficiency in forestry operations.

management. Many national and international organizations fund
research projects at IIFM.
