| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project aims to design the methodology for evaluating those aspects, which contribute to ensuring the sustainable humanosphere, in environmental movements. We picked up the Chipko (forest protection) movement and the Anti-Tehri dam Movement as case studies. The outcomes of this research project will be published as a monograph. As for the Chipko movement, we first focused on the transformation of forest management policy in the Uttarakhand, and then, analyzed how the movement contributed to the transformation. As a result, we revealed that, for example, the expulsion of the non-local logging companies from the region was one of the main achievement of the movement.
