Dear all,
Sorry for late response. Anyway, the idea is really
great. It must be done for our recognition as our
field has been encroaching by many so called
NRManagers. It is so timely that there are number of
Institute offering NRM courses in Nepal and reducing
our scope.
Since, I'm working at Institute of Forestry, I can
also contribute from my side. So, best of luck.
It must be done anyway.
Truly yours,
Anil Shrestha, Faculty Member, IOF, Hetauda.

I appreciate your support and like to be involved one way or another in forestry issues and agenda. It's very true that forestry is nowhere in the national scene and we foresters are equally responsible for that besides many other things. Any way, like to have regular updates of this forum.
Dear friends,
Since last year(s), it is being discussed about materializing the concept of
foresters council. It is high time that all of us make a joint effort to
make it come true. It can be good if organizations like NFA take leading
roles.
Thanking you all.

Thanks all of you for good initiation. I
am always in the favor of forestry council but how it operates is most
important. We have lots of examples in Nepal like medical, lowers etc. This
issue has been raised for more than five years in NFA but whichever comes in
the executive committee, they just forget after winning the election. I suggest
that this e- group should be the forum for sharing experiences and opportunities
to rest of the members. I wish for
its good progress in future.
Dear all,
I am much glad to see the message of establishing the Nepal Forestry Council
and ready to help for this. Recognition of being the Nepalese foresters will
be secured by the establishment of NFC. Moreover, the encrochment from other
fields can also be reduced if we establish a council and benefits all the
forestry professional.
Buddi

It is really nice to hear from all of you guys that you are really interested in this matter. Everybody frequently asking that who will initiate it. But I think that its not our problem that who will initiate first? Our present problem is how to convince all foresters and build commitment ?
Thats why I think that first of all we should gather more than more email address of foresters and they would be informed about it. After that I hope that I will automatically initiate. Don't be so sad. Hey guys be strong and commited for this. One day you can get that.
Cheers
Rajesh Rai
PS. Try to send more than more email ID to either Benktesh or me.
An e-group devoted on Nepalese foresters emerged and expanding quite rapidly. It is interesting to discuss in the related issues on Nepal's forestry sector and improve overall ethics, and compatibility of professionalism. The recent debate on the issue of forestry council so far has been gaining momentum and most of the professionals involved in the groups are not only giving green signal for the establishment of forestry council but also are interested to contribute for the fruition of the council. The move is positive on this aspect but question is also emersing who should lead the process: NFA or some other structured or unstructured body?
Many more issues are coming from members of this e-group working in different sectors of forestry. So, please join the group and initiate other foresters to join it. Contribution are highly welcomed.
I strongly agreed with this idea and hope to contribute what ever i can from my side. Lets form a strong advocacy and networking group in this aspects, such that we will be albe to carry out our desire activity
hope we will get sucess at this regards

I fully agree with Nepal Forestry Council (instead of Forester's council). The benefit is like professional registration and certification like Medical Council, Agriculture council etc. If such council is recognized by the Governement we are entitled to get paid to run the office and no person who is not qualified and not registered in council can work in forestry sector. And also, our scope will widen as we can ask for legislation and state that every CF OP should be signed and registered by at least Forestry Council Member before it can be approved by DFO. I think this is the benefit of forming a forestry council.
Well infact, the people who are already forestry veteran do not think a need for council as one way or other they will be practicing forestry but this is must for forester not in givernement sector. IOF was also once in support of this idea but I do not know what went wrong that nothing came up.

Today, after eight years of my forestry profession, I am realizing a new kind of enthusiasm with my forester fellows and myself. The idea of forestry council was ever the great idea among all foresters. I believe that there is no doubt on the extreme benefits of that council to each and every foresters.
I also believe that every foresters want such council.....but the problem is that who will initiate it??? We of course need some dedicated and committed leaders to put some valuable impetus on it.....
I was glad to see this yahoo groups...this is a very good step of initiation...... I would personally like to thank a lot for this......
We all forester are ready to do or die for establishing Forestry Council....... we just need sharing information and well planning.......
Dear Nepalese Foresters,
A lot of responses are coming now on the issue of formation of
Forestry Couuncil for us. All of them are positive. Now we should
really think that we have a good power in ourselves so we can make a
council.
In the mean time, one of the Forester, Mr. Ram Shah, Forest Officer
at Department of Forest asked for the information on this e-group
activities. Therefore, I am giving a brief explanation on how is it
working.
Nepalese Forester e-group is run on voluntary basis. This group was
formed in March 2002 and it has about 118 members at this moment from
some IOF forestry students to the Faculties and to the Forest
Officers and over all most of the members are recent graduates of IOF.
In general for the first time, if you post the message the moderator
gives permission for the public view. And for the successive posting
they are directly sent to public. There are several moderators within
group and these moderators can invite, ban, add new members to the
group. This moderatorship can be given to anyone for a limited or
unlimited period of time based on the need of this right.
This group should not be used for fun purpose. Only for the
professional messages, this group should be used. If any member
violate this rule and posts unrelated messages, then all the future
message from such members will be moderated i.e., a moderator first
sees the text of message before that message could go to public and
only the messages approved by moderator can go to the public forum.
Thus please do not use this group for non-professional activity. If
you think we should list out do's and don't please send your
individual opinion so that we can have an understandings.
If you foresters think there should be someone who should be added in
this group, please let us know the email address. You can send the
list of email address to benktesh@... so that he can add them
in this group and all the future message would go to such personals.
This is very general form of this group. At the moment, we are on the
way for the forestry council and we need a common effort.
I need your opinioin concerning the disclosure of the members name in
this forum. If the members agree on that, the list of memebers would
be sent to all the members so that we would know eachother better.
Waiting for your responses,
Yours' truely
Benktesh
I strongly agreed with this idea and hope to contribute what ever i can from my side. Lets form a strong advocacy and networking group in this aspects, such that we will be albe to carry out our desire activity
hope we will get sucess at this regards

I fully agree with Nepal Forestry Council (instead of Forester's council). The benefit is like professional registration and certification like Medical Council, Agriculture council etc. If such council is recognized by the Governement we are entitled to get paid to run the office and no person who is not qualified and not registered in council can work in forestry sector. And also, our scope will widen as we can ask for legislation and state that every CF OP should be signed and registered by at least Forestry Council Member before it can be approved by DFO. I think this is the benefit of forming a forestry council.
Well infact, the people who are already forestry veteran do not think a need for council as one way or other they will be practicing forestry but this is must for forester not in givernement sector. IOF was also once in support of this idea but I do not know what went wrong that nothing came up.
Chiranjivee sir got strong idea on this issue long time back.

Hello Yahoo group Nepaleseforestrers
Formation of a Forestry council is a great idea. I wholeheartedly support
it. We could be addressed my some title then, just like Dr (doctor).
Er(Engineer) etc. And our profession will be recognized. Then We, the
graduates in Forestry will only be called forestry professionals and no one
else. Today, People of Arts, commerce, economics faculty after working in
community forestry for some while also write Community Forestry Specialist
in their Biodata and also get more attractive places in the projects and
consultancies. In this respect the registration in the council will clearly
define who is the forestry specialist and who is not. Furthermore, council
can play important role on the forestry sector policy preparation.
Our profession will be more legalized and regulated and we will feel more
responsibility coz we will be a recognized forestry practiciner.
We can also run our independent consultancies just like the doctor gives the
medical consultation and more legal rights for us.
Forestry council is must for our professional security !
I don't see any negative aspects with formation of a council instead there
are a lot of benefits. I fully support it.

Hi!
Well I'm still in the process of being a forester and in a few more months I
will want to have a respect and a position for myself of my worth and this
is the case with every person who is carrying their studies so, why not be
united and form a council and be there keeping a strong foothold to the
outsiders. I think its a great idea.

I think establishing of "Forestry council" will help us to show ourselves as the only proffessionals in the forestry sector. And that will make us something different from other sector personnels.
But I don't think it is a 'panacea' for what's all going around at present.
Enter your vote today! A new poll has been created for the

Respected Ladies and Gentlemen
For the past few days, we have been going through the discussion on
formation of Forestry Coucil. And in this some of us have already
taken part and for some of us, this message is new. Therefore, I
would like to give an update on what so far has already begun for
those of us who are receiving this message for the first time.
The developments are in chronological order.
Thank you very much !

Dear Fellows,
About One Month ago I got chance to participate in the discussion of
NFA ( Regional Committee) in Biratnagar. President and Secretary of
the NFA were also present there. There was hot discussion about the
Council of Foresters. But NFA is not thinking about this. The
President told that they are busy in some projects by NFA to collect
fund for the conduction of NFA secretary. But most of the
participants said that if we could manage the council then the
headache for fund will remove.
There was also discussion that Nepal Swiss CommunityForestry Project
is going to conduct CF Inventory Training for the social workers to
conduct inventory work in CFs of thier project supported area. If it
will happen then we have no things to recognize us as a Foresters.
All felt that it is essential to make council. But it is impossible
without the initiation of NFA. Could we do something for this?
I think it is necessary for our professional recognition.

Rajesh Rai

I agree with rajesh's opinion of forming Forester's council. But
before we knock NFA for that, we should be able to convince NFA and

benefit of council?

Hello to all of you
I fully agree with Nepal Forestry Council (instead of Forester's
council). The benefit is like professional registration and
certification like Medical Council, Agriculture council etc. If such
council is recognized by the Governement we are entitled to get paid
to run the office and no person who is not qualified and not
registered in council can work in forestry sector. And also, our
scope will widen as we can ask for legislation and state that every
CF OP should be signed and registered by at least Forestry Council
Member before it can be approved by DFO. I think this is the benefit
of forming a forestry council.
Well infact, the people who are already forestry veteran do not think
a need for council as one way or other they will be practicing
forestry but this is must for forester not in givernement sector. IOF
was also once in support of this idea but I do not know what went
wrong that nothing came up.
Chiranjivee sir got strong idea on this issue long time back.
Ok bye for the moment.

Thank you very much !
We need to expand this forum, thus please let me know the email of the foresters we have and we can send this message to each of the foresters. Which ever email you have please let me know I will add all of them in this forum. YOu understand well that having a council for us is not a small task. We need a lot and lot of motivated people for that and a campaign is essential and this emailing can help a bit in campaigning.
Thanks

Dear Friends,
Nice to know about the querry of Rupesh and Sony. I have some points about the benefit of the council.
First I want to show you the need that why council? In these days many people from different discipline are encroaching the field of foresters. Now we are going to be jobless but there is many post for the foresters in different NGOs and INGOs. But all post are fulfilled by the different faculties. We found that it is threaten for we foresters.
If there is a council then it will be supported by the government first. there will be some certain law that now one can do or conduct the program related to the forest withouth having the person who have certificate from Foresters Council. If it happen then everybody can get job and we don't have to feel unsecure. Now we are only secure in HMG side but not in other side.
One example all of you know about survey, levelling but you cannot involve in the engineering field. It is the benefit of council.
I hope you could understand about this. If not then we can discuss more in this forum.

Nepal: Small grants make big gains for local culture and environment Source: Newsfront, 27 November 2002, (nora.perez@...]
Two small-scale projects -- one to protect a forest with temple ruins and the other to enable solar energy use -- are making a big impact in Nepal. Both rely on community action and are supported by the UNDP Global Environment Facility Small Grants Programme <http://www.undp.org/gef/undp-gef_small_grants_programme/undp-gef_small_gran ts_programme.html>, which provides up to US$50 000 for projects that conserve local biodiversity and improve livelihoods. In Kankrebihar in Surkhet district in western Nepal, villagers protect unusual temple ruins and conserve the surrounding forest, home to many animal and plants species. The initiative, begun two years ago, helped set up 17 community organizations to mobilize resources for conservation and development activities. "The project has helped bring the magnificent ruins and need to preserve them to national attention," said Kristina Mikkola, UNDP programme officer. They are unique in Nepal, she noted, and if well restored could become an important tourist site. The community groups prepare their own plans and decide what activities are needed for their conservation and development projects. Local organizations now protect 167 ha of forest and have established a museum devoted to Tharu culture, the heritage of one of Nepal's largest ethnic groups. The organizations have also installed improved cooking stoves, which burn wood efficiently to help conserve the forest, in 164 houses. There are 18 projects supported by the UNDP GEF Small Grants Programme underway in different areas of Nepal demonstrating how communities can find a balance between economic development and environmental conservation.

University of Washington: Two graduate research assistantships are available to students with interests in vegetation dynamics, dendrochronology, or ecological restoration. You will join a team of scientists and land managers associated with the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest, Oregon who are pursuing basic and applied aspects of montane meadow ecology. We are interested in (1) understanding the historical patterns of conifer encroachment into montane meadows of the western Cascade Range, (2) determining the consequences of this encroachment for meadow communities, and (3) developing approaches to meadow restoration through active management of vegetation and fuels. Possible subjects for thesis research include, but are not limited to: (1) spatial and temporal patterns of tree establishment and subsequent forest development, (2) relationships between overstory development and ground-layer vegetation, (3) influences of small-scale disturbances on meadow community composition, (4) patterns and correlates of annual variability in forest and meadow vegetation, (5) responses of forest and meadow communities to experimental restoration treatments (thinning and prescribed fire). Additional information on our broader research program can be found at: http://www.fsl.orst.edu/lter/research/related/jfsp/jfsp02.pdf We seek enthusiastic students interested in developing solid, field-based research, who have strong quantitative and writing skills, who are familiar with or can quickly learn the local flora, and who have the ability to work independently in a fairly remote field setting. Applicants must be available during summer 2003 to assist with baseline field studies. Opportunities exist to interact with other scientists and federal land managers associated with the nearby H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest, a Long-term Ecological Research (LTER) site: http://www.fsl.orst.edu/lter/ These assistantships are best suited to graduate studies at the Masters level, although possibilities for doctoral study also exist. Candidates must qualify for admission to the Ecosystem Analysis Graduate Program at the College of Forest Resources, University of Washington. A complete application, including statement of interest, resume, transcripts, GRE scores, and three letters of recommendation must be received by the College of Forest Resources no later than 15 January 2003: http://www.cfr.washington.edu/Acad/grad.html. For more information, contact: Charlie Halpern, Phone: 206-543-2789, Email: chalpern@..., http://www.cfr.washington.edu/Faculty/Halpern/. Posted: 10/17/02.

A joint Master of Science program has been initiated between the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium, and Purdue University, U.S.A.
The program focuses on Earth Observation technology (i.e., remote sensing, geographic information and decision support systems, global positioning systems, etc.) and its applications in terrestrial systems modeling (i.e., vegetationstudies, land use assessment and planning, coastal and river management, erosion and pollution monitoring, etc.).
The degree is specifically geared towards the needs of the Earth Observation market place, and will be closely monitored for consistency and technological excellence by an external steering committee, composed of representatives from the different professional sectors that will employ the graduates of this program.
The joint graduate program consists of two consecutive study years, with the first one encompassing two semesters of course work, one at each university.While Purdue offers the basic geomatics courses in the first semester, K.U.Leuven continues in the second semester with courses that are centered on earth-based biophysical processes and applications.Courses taught at Purdue include Remote Sensing of Land Resources, GIS Concepts and Applications, Fundamentals in Photogrammetry and Geodesy, and Spatial Data Analaysis.At the K.U.Leuven, they compriseVegetative Canopy Monitoring, Reference Data Base Establishment, Global Change Monitoring, Image Analysis and Understanding, and Land Processes Monitoring.
The second year is dedicated to research at the university where the student has registered for the M.S. degree. Regardless of their home base, all students will also participate during that second year in a Internet-driven research-based seminar course.Apart from successful course evaluations, graduation requires the submission of a thesis manuscript in the form of a peer- reviewable article.
Those interested in learning more about this joint program are invited to contact the program administratorsat the K.U.Leuven greta.camps@...or at Purdue pgraves@... .
