Particulars of Arrangement in Formulation of Policy

[Section-4(1) (b) (vii)]

1. Bamboo Mission:

Odisha Bamboo Development Agency is an initiative aimed at integrated development of Bamboo sector in Odisha. The focus is on bamboo resource regeneration by commercial cultivation of bamboo and building highly competitive clusters producing commercially accepted bamboo products through value addition as well as setting up bamboo based industries with recent advances in technology. The mission has special focus on adequate returns to farmers as well as promoting sustainable livelihood for tribal and rural poor engaged in bamboo sector with emphasis on women empowerment.

2. Project Description:

Historically, the coastal zone has been a major focus for the development of human Society. The coastal and marine ecosystems being highly productive attract human settlement and economic activities. Coastal zone ecosystem is important for biological and economic productivity, storm protection, erosion control and most importantly it provides a host of ecosystem services which are crucial for human wellbeing. Despite their ecological richness and the contribution to national economy, the coastal and marine areas have not received adequate protection, and are under stress. Rapid urban-industrialization, maritime transport, marine fishing, tourism, coastal and sea bed mining, offshore oil and natural gas production and aquaculture have led to a significant increase in demand for infrastructure, resulting in the over-exploitation of natural resources. Such rapid depletion and degradation, unless arrested, will impact the livelihood, health and wellbeing of the coastal population; affecting in turn prospects for India‘s sustained economic growth. Sustainable management of coastal and marine resources is essential for long term economic growth and to ensure the equilibrium between economic development and the protection of the environment. In this context Ministry of Forest & Environment, Government of India, the World Bank have come forward with ICZM approach to coordinate activities of various sectors and resource users for the sustainable management and wise use of coastal resources maintaining the integrity of coastal ecosystem.

Integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) is a process for the management of the coast using an integrated approach to achieve sustainability, regarding all aspects of the coastal zone, including geographical and political boundaries. This concept of ICZM was coined in 1992 during the Earth Summit at Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) is a planning and management process which aims to balance multiple human activities and demands on coastal space and resources with the protection of dynamic and vulnerable coastal systems and the maintenance of the functions and services which they provide (Humphrey and Burbridge).

On a pilot basis ICZM project is implemented for the first time in India in three States i.e. Odisha, West Bengal & Gujarat. The ICZM frame work is a paradigm shift from the traditional approach of sectoral management of the coastal resources to a comprehensive, integrated approach for better governance and management. For effective management and implementation of all project activities and coordination with 10 PEAs of ICZM Project Odisha, a society namely “Integrated Coastal Zone Management Society, Odisha” has been registered to function as State Project Management Unit (SPMU). The duration of the project is for a period of 5 years starting from September, 2010. The Department of Forest & Environment, Government of Odisha is the Nodal Department for implementation of this five year project in Odisha which has been extended for another 2 years by Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change, Government of India till December 2017. The SPMU is set up and the ICZM Project office is functioning from Bhubaneswar. The total budget outlay of the project is Rs227. 64 crores. This budget outlay has now been revised up to Rs334.86 crore. Out of this budget 10% is State’s contribution. The funds are being received from the Ministry of Environment and Forest Government of India in form of grant for the project. For smooth implementation of the project a Steering Committee under the chairmanship of the Chief Secretary Odisha is constituted. A Governing Body is also constituted under the Chairmanship of Principal Secretary Forest & Environment. The ICZM (O) project has been conceived with an objective to facilitate the development and implementation of an integrated management strategy for the coastal zone, by adopting a broad perspective and a multi-sectoral approach, to ensure wise use of coastal resources, perpetual maintenance of high level of biodiversity , conservation of critical habitats and to maintain their ecological integrity including sustainable coastal fishery, protection from extreme weather events, nature based tourism, and infrastructure development.

The ICZM project for Odisha is formulated based on multidisciplinary and interactive framework to promote sustainable management of coastal zones through a wide consultative process to make it as inclusive as possible. Considering the dynamic nature of coastal ecosystem an adaptive approach for formulation of the project is followed. A series of grass root level consultation workshops are being organized to get the inputs from the stakeholders as participation of all stakeholders in achieving the goals is one of the key elements of the project. To make it more accessible to the stake holders a toll free number: 1800-345-6729 and a dedicated website www.iczmpodisha.org with an interactive grievance redress link is launched by the SPMU.

The major thrust of the project is to coordinate the initiatives of various coastal economic sectors towards long term optimal socio-economic outcomes, ICZM compliant coastal infrastructures including resolution of sectoral conflicts and mediating beneficial trade-offs. Integrated in this way, a multi-sectoral approach would jointly guide the activities of the key economic sectors under an effective coastal planning and management system.

The project on long-term balances environmental, economic, social, cultural and recreational objectives, all within the limits set by natural dynamics and would facilitate integration of the terrestrial and marine components of the target territory, in both time and space through a comprehensive ICZM Plan. The ICZM plan would be extremely useful for management of natural resources as well as development of the infrastructure in coastal zone.

The project would benefit the coastal population of the state. About 4 lakhs people from 235 coastal villages of Kendrapara, Jagatsinghpur, Puri, Khurda and Ganjam would be directly benefitted from the project activities. Direct employment opportunity for the coastal fisher folks would be created through eco-tourism activities. Capacity building and empowerment of 600 Self Help Groups from 60 villages would be carried out through the project.

ICZM is a continuous and iterative process designed to promote sustainable management of coastal zones. ICZM provides a means to accept and bring together different objectives for coastal areas in such an order that multiple social, economic, cultural and environmental goals can be achieved Planning for ICZM is not simply integrating environment into sectoral planning. ICZM is an integrated governance process in which all stakeholders associated and affected with natural and coastal resources work together to fully ensemble the societal objectives for both present and future generations.

 

 

ODISHA FOREST SECTOR

ECOTOURISM POLICY

1. BACKROUND

The state of Odisha with its rich natural and cultural heritage is one of the most attractive tourist destinations in the country. The tourists, who know Odisha for its temples, crafts and dance, deserve greater exposure to its hinterland of hills, forest and wildlife. Well-endowed with vast forest areas, rivers, coast line, beaches, lakes and lagoon, the state provides unique opportunities for ecotourism in the state. Odisha has about 31% of its land covered with forests, supporting around 86 species of Mammals, 473 species of birds, 110 species of Reptiles, more than 3000 species of Plants including 132 species of orchids, 60 species of Mangrove Plants and 350 species of Medicinal Plants. The rich biodiversity of the state is co nserved mainly through a network of protected areas comprising 2 National Parks and 18 Sanctuaries. This network is complemented by wilderness areas, wetlands and other bio diverse sites along the coasts including mangroves and turtle rookeries. Elephants, tigers, leopards, blackbucks, crocodiles, Olive ridley turtles, Irrawaddy dolphins and migratory birds provide special attraction to the tourists. Ecotourism, distinguished from other forms of tourism in terms of its minimal impact on the visited areas, is defined as: “Responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the welfare of local people.”(TIES, 1991)Ecotourism offers an opportunity to showcase the state’s unique natural and associated cultural heritage to visitors while enhancing the livelihood options for the local people.

2. VISION

Ecotourism will promote responsible travel to natural areas and provide opportunities for

visitors to experience firsthand, understand and ‘quietly’ enjoy state’s natural and cultural

heritage. This will lead to conservation of nature, sustaining of ecological processes,

increased respect for local culture and traditions and tangible improvement in the local

economy.

3. GOAL

To provide recreation and promote understanding about nature and wildlife conservation with

income generation and employment opportunity to local people while according priority to

bio-diversity conservation, ecosystem functioning and socio-economic development.

4. OBJECTIVES

The above will be achieved through the following objectives:

Objective 1

Promote amongst all stakeholders, awareness, experiential learning and

understanding of the values and principles of sustainable and responsible

community based tourism , particularly in relation to the state’s protected areas

and other areas of wilderness.

Objective 2

Develop, brand and market an Odisha style of visitor experience, particularly

with respect to promoting a ‘quiet’ enjoyment of its natural heritage.

Objective 3

Invest in appropriate and eco- friendly infrastructure for ecotourism for tourists.

Objective 4

Establish partnerships between all stakeholders to develop and promote

destinations and activities in accordance with defined principles, standards and

legal requirements of community based ecotourism.

Objective 5

Build capacity of all stakeholders in natural and cultural heritage interpretation,

hospitality, business and communication skills to successfully and sustainably

manage tourist traffic.

5.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR ECOTOURISM

5.1 Development of ecotourism actionplan for important destinations:

Ecotourism policy should be the guiding principle for promotion of ecotourism and immediate

steps should be taken for development of ecotourism action plan for important destinations

within the state. Three important thrust areas for ecotourism remain (i) Simlipal, (ii)Satkosia

and (iii) Bhitarkanika. These are to be planned and developed for the tourists from within

and outside state and the procedure for online advance booking for accommodation and

entry into the sanctuary should be streamlined and made simple. The tourist

accommodations in the peripheral locations outside the Protected Areas and Forests can be

developed by Tourism Department/ OTDC Ltd. /OFDC Ltd on its own or in PPP mode.

5.2 Infrastructure Development:

Development of infrastructure, improvement of facilities, and tourist circuits within the Protected Areas should be the function of the Wildlife Wing of Forest Department in accordance with the rules and regulation for protected areas. The destination development for other potential forest areas outside the sanctuary should be carried out by the principal CCF (Odisha). While implementing the policy and developing and operating ecotourism at ecotourism destinations, the prevailing Acts and Rules shall be adhered to.

5.3 Eco-tourists facilitation:

The facilitation of the ecotourists, tour packages, route management / development and movement needs to be carried out by some out side agency in coordination with the Protected Area manager or DFO concerned. For the present, Odisha Forest Development Corporation Ltd. can take up this responsibility. It should provide one-stop solution such as obtaining permission to visit the designated places from competent authority, provide accommodation, facilitate transport arrangements with the help of bus/ taxi operators etc. OFDC Ltd. may raise internal resources or avail assistance from the Tourism Department for developing infrastructure and building their staff capacity.

5.4 Ecotourism Principles:

Ecotourism will be promoted and developed in accordance with the above vision, goal and objectives, based on the following core set of principles:

Principle 1

Nature Area Focus - provide visitors with the opportunity to directly experience nature.

Principle 2

Interpretation - provide opportunities to visitors to experience nature in ways

that lead to greater understanding, appreciation and enjoyment.

Principle 3

Environmentally Sustainable Practice – ensure environmentally sustainable

practices within carrying capacity of the area.

Principle 4

Promotion of Conservation and Benefits to Local Communities - ensure

promotion of conservation and tangible returns to the local communities.

Principle 5

Respect Culture - be sensitive to understand oral local culture

Principle 6

Strategic Marketing for Customer Satisfaction - to market and promote

effectively so that realistic customer expectations are achieved.

6. IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY

The objectives will be achieved through the implementation of a strategy based on the

following key initiatives.

Strategy 1

The unique values (Unique Selling Points) of Odisha will be identified and

agreed through a participatory, consensus-building process involving all stake

holders such as key Government Departments, non-government

organisations, private sector entrepreneurs and the community concerned.

This will provide the basis for establishing an Odisha brand and responsible

marketing of sustainable tourism, in which community-based ecotourism in and

around protected areas will play a significant role. Outputs from this

participatory process will include:

Strategy for marketing a responsible and sustainable tourism in Odisha, of

which community-based ecotourism will comprise the core.

Establishment of partnership between the stakeholders namely Tourism,

Industry, Forest Department and local communities, to steer and coordinate

the development of community-based ecotourism in and around protected

areas and other wilderness areas.The income generated from eco-tourism activity shall be ploughed back for the welfare of the community managing eco-tourism and for provision of

eco-development and eco-tourism facilities.

Strategy 2

Capacity in the designing , establishment and management of ecotourism

initiatives including destinations, will be strengthened and developed by:

Establishment of a centre of excellence for responsible tourism to build

capacity within the local communities, government and private sector to

take responsibility for achieving sustainable tourism, and to create better

places for people to live in and for people to visit. In-house training in responsible and sustainable tourism within public sectors (tourism, culture, forests, wildlife, etc.). Responsible and sustainable tourism will be reinforced through eco-clubs and Green Volunteers. Customised training courses for those engaged in community-based ecotourism enterprises; in natural and cultural heritage interpretation, hospitality, business management, communication skills etc. Preparation and promotion of best practices guidelines, codes, standards, audits, accreditation schemes and models concerned with different aspects of ecotourism.

Strategy 3

A web site will be established to promote, and coordinate the marketing of quality ecotourism initiatives in Odisha. The web site will promote ecotourism by: Explaining the concept of ecotourism and its principles, with examples of best practices. Highlighting Odisha’s special values, thereby encouraging potential visitors to explore the website (and its links) further for potential destinations.Providing information on/ links to ecotourism destinations, eco-lodges, home-stays and other facilities in Odisha, including on-line booking.Providing a transparent and objective audit of ecotourism enterprises that indicates the extent to which eco-lodges, home-stays and other ventures meet a predefined set of best practice criteria. This will enable the responsible traveller to make an informed choice of their destination/accommodation facility, while also encouraging enterprises to adopt and develop best practice.

Strategy 4

The ecotourism market will be promoted by investing in the development of a network of prime ecotourism destinations, having good, reliable means of access and ecolodges (and home-stays) that demonstrate best practice in the use of renewable resources (materials, energy etc), community management and experiential learning and quiet enjoyment for the visitors. Destination outputs will: Promote use of renewable and biodegradable resources. Management by registered (Divisional level) ecotourism societies comprising Joint forest Management Committees. Promotion of non-motorised forms of transports as far as possible. Activities will be of an experiential nature, enabling the visitor to learn and see from ‘doing’. Trained and knowledgeable local instructors and guides will

be available to lead/facilitate/interpret such activities. Promotion of eco-friendly waste disposal methodologies.

Strategy 5

Research and monitoring will inform the outcomes and effectiveness of policy

implementation, and the future development of ecotourism will be determined

by environmental impact assessment,

socioeconomic evaluation and its

contribution to environmental conservation as well as the availability of

benefits to the local community. In particular;

Ecotourism will be monitored with respect to (a) visitor impacts on the

environment and local communities, and (b) the conservation message

conveyed to visitors. Eco tourism plan shall be an integral part of the Wild

life Management Plan of Protected Areas.

Research will focus on generating new knowledge, insights and modalities

for sustainable ecotourism.

Potential impacts of projects including construction and development of

visitor facilities will be assessed.

Monitoring of eco tourism as per the carrying capacity in Protected Areas

(PAs) and delineation of tourism zone in PAs would be done by the CWLW.

Strategy 6

The Forest and Environment Department, Government of Odisha shall be the

Nodal Department to promote ecotourism in the state.

The department shall constitute the Odisha Ecotourism Development Board

(OEDB) to act as the nodal agency.

It shall be the Board’s mandate to ensure the attainment of the objectives

and goals set forth in this policy.

The Board shall develop necessary systems and standards for the purpose.

The Board shall be equipped with the required technical and financial

resources.

In case of any dispute, management of Protected Areas, Wildlife and Bio

diversity shall take precedence over tourism.

Strategy 7

In Protected Areas where registered Eco-tourism and Eco-development

Societies are functioning, the eco tourism will be managed / promoted by the

same society. In the areas, where no such society has been formed, the eco

tourism will be managed / promoted by involving the Local Advisory Committee

(LAC) under the chairmanship of the collector of the district concerned. The

LAC will have the following mandate and composition.
