This paper discusses the implementation of Joint Forest Management (JFM) in Chattisgarh, India which on the other hand, has encountered problems due to issues on sustainability, bureaucracy, local people's involvement, and gender relations. Various resolutions were done to the JFM programme to address problems on forest degradation, decentralization of forest management, and social participation. The People's Protected Areas was established as a regime for sustainable livelihood approach through biodiversity conservation.
