This bibliography will help students, researchers, project implementer, and policy makers identify and understand environmental justice problems in Nepal. Various studies related to the access of people to resources, distribution of ecological benefits and hazards and livelihood security are included in this bibliography. Environmental justice is a considered important in improving environmental quality and enabling the sustainable use of resources and their protection, empowerment of the marginalized and improved livelihood security.

There are three chapters with first chapter Natural Resources Management including forest resources, water resources and irrigation, women and resources and environmental impact assessment. Chapter two is about Urban Environment which includes solid waste management, water pollution, air pollution and other issues and Chapter Three includes about Park-People Relation.

Hi Prakriti,
Wow, this book looks hard. The title goes by 'A Bibliography on Environmental Justice in Nepal' and simply by reading the title, this book looks a bit difficult to me. Before reading your report, I did not know there is this term called Environmental justice which is a considered important in improving environmental quality and enabling the sustainable use of resources and their protection, empowerment of the marginalized and improved livelihood security. I think this will be an informative report to all ambassadors! :)
Great!

Hello Prakriti
Environmental justice is a movement that grew from the recognition that ethnic minority or low-income people are susceptible to environmental pollutions. As you mentioned, environmental justice is very important in ensuring the sustainable use of the resources and improving livelihood security. Thank you for sharing your report with us!
