This book studies environment and sustainable development from the perspective of gender. It focuses on three major themes, including sustainability of development practices, policy perspectives on environmental management and climate change and its gendered impact. It includes contributions from academicians working across disciplines and practitioners working at the grassroots levels. The book addresses issues facing India amid a growing global environmental crisis and suggests policy measures for environmental protection and to improve the quality of life of its inhabitants.

Lucid and topical, the volume will be an indispensable resource for students, researchers of gender, environment and sustainable development, sociology and public policy. It will also be a great resource for advocacy groups, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and policymakers working in the area.
