dc.descriptionThis policy brief is based on SANDEE working paper no. 23-07, "Who collects resources in degraded environments? : a case study from Jhabua District, India"en
dc.description.abstractIn many developing countries, environmental degradation and the resulting loss of natural resources can have significant social and economic impacts, especially on disadvantaged groups such as poor, rural women. A SANDEE study looks at the impact of the availability of three key natural resources – water, forests and fodder – on villagers in the Jhabua district of Madhya Pradesh in India. It aims to provide a better understanding of the link between the scarcity of such resources and gender inequality.en
