Abstract

The study examines the role of the Forest Act 1927 in promoting sustainable forest governance in Bangladesh. By applying a doctrinal method, this thesis has evaluated the contribution of the Act for protection, restoration, sustainable use, and sustainable management of forests in Bangladesh. These are the standards set by Goal 15 of the SDGs, which create governance priorities for the states to sustainably manage their forests. Though the Forest Act 1927 has several provisions regulating the protection, restoration, sustainable use, and sustainable management of forests, this study argues that its deficiencies can impact sustainable forest governance in Bangladesh.
