Subject: [Bhutan-eForest] PhD research on forestry extension & eco-tourism


> Dear seniors, peers and colleagues,
>
> I would be very glad to have some discussion on this forum about some
> issues of my PhD research set as below.
>
> I have recently joined ETHZ in Switzerland to carry out PhD research
> (sandwich program) where I will spend part of my time at ETHZ and
> partly in Bhutan.
>
> My research intends to focus on the history of forest administration,
> look at the present situation and its possible development.
>
> I think one variable that could be of interest to Bhutan would be to
> look at the benefits from linkages between forestry and eco-tourism.
>
> Field research will take place in Bhutan and concerns many
> stakeholders. The research could be of interest to both the
> Governmental and Non-Governmental organizations like the Department
> of Forest, PPD, NCD, Department of Tourism, NEC, RSPN, private tour
> operators and NRTI. It could also be of interest to other agencies
> like Helvetas, SDC, GTZ, UNDP, WWF, WWMP, PFMP and SNV.
>
> Therefore I would like to seek views from important Bhutanese
> officials and relevant stakeholders who could give me some feedback
> and inspiration on your concerns and pertinent questions.
>
> Your expertise and views regarding the priority regions and research
> areas would be very useful to give substance to my research. Your
> perception and concerns about, e.g. infrastructure, marketing pattern
> and staffing and skills required on the priority research areas will
> be valuable.
>
> Kindly feel free to discuss on the research topic.
