🔆 Women Leading Environmental Resistance in South Asia

✅ Across India and South Asia, women lead movements resisting unjust development, extractivism, and climate degradation — yet remain largely excluded from decision-making.

âś… Examples of Resistance:
• Odisha: Women in Sijimali protesting mining threats.
• Tamil Nadu: Fishing community women opposing Kudankulam Nuclear Plant.
• Jharkhand: Adivasi women blocking coal mining on ancestral land.
• Narmada Bachao Andolan: Medha Patkar’s global leadership on dam impacts.

âś… Lack of Recognition & Inclusion:
• Women often excluded from consultations, even under Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) frameworks.

âś… Legal Frameworks vs Reality:
• India’s Forest Rights Act (2006) & PESA Act (1996) recognise women’s roles; Nepal promotes joint land ownership; Bangladesh prioritizes women in khas land distribution.
• But land titles mostly held by men; Gram Sabhas and compensation dominated by men or exclude women.

âś… Gender Bias in Compensation:
• No comprehensive gender-sensitive land policy in India.
• Redistribution often overlooks single women, widows, and undocumented women.
• Customary laws override Hindu Succession Act in tribal areas.

âś… Climate Adaptation Challenges:
• Women suffer deeper inequalities from heat, water scarcity, pollution.
• They bear caregiving burdens and longer work hours but are excluded from resilience planning.

âś… Call for Structural Change:
• Ensure consultations are free, prior, informed, inclusive.
• Provide women-only spaces, legal aid, translation, accessible timings.
• Recognise women as independent landowners.

✅ Valuing Women’s Leadership:
• Support women’s leadership in activism, negotiation, legislature, and compensation boards.

The seemingly negative pandemic effects and resource/product shortages are encouraging and allowing organizations to innovate and change.The news of cash-rich organizations getting ready for the post-Covid growth economy is a sign of more than capital spending plans. Cash provides a cushion for risk-taking and a tool for growth.

That strategy is the acquisition of a value-priced company by a growth company. Using the growth company's higher-priced stock for the acquisition can produce outsized revenue and earnings growth. Even better is the use of cash, particularly in a growth period when financial aggressiveness is accepted and even positively viewed.he key public rationale behind this strategy is synergy - the 1+1=3 view. In many cases, synergy does occur and is valuable. However, in other cases, particularly as the strategy gains popularity, it doesn't. Joining two different organizations, workforces and cultures is a challenge. Simply putting two separate organizations together necessarily creates disruptions and conflicts that can undermine both operations.
