Community Entrepreneurship & Memorial Forest in Bajhang District (Part 2 of 3)

Video documentary broadcasted a few years ago on Nepal Television as part of a program called "Aankhijhyal". It presents two reports from Bajhang district in western Nepal: the first focuses on successful community-based handmade paper enterprise in Kailash, while the second shows a rural community's effort to protect the biodiversity of large areas in mid hills and high mountains through the creation of a memorial forest. Supported by ANSAB (http:www.ansab.org) through the Resources Management Sector Assistance Program (NARMSAP) and presented by the Nepal Forum of Environmental Journalists (http://www.nefej.org/).
