Invasive Alien Species (lAS) cause damages amounhng to billions of dollars throughout the. world across a wide range of sectors including agriculture, forestry, fisheries, human health and tourism, threatening ecdnomic growth, prosperity as well as the environment. During the last one decade, there has been a lot of awakening to deal with lAS effectively which needs cooperation and coordination among countries as well as various agencies within countries. A number of international and regional institutions have been established for co-ordination and co-operation among the countries. A few countries have passed separate legislation to manage lAS and some others are in the process of doing so. The Forest Invasive Species (FIS) are of direct relevance to the forestry sector. In India, we need to create awareness among the people and various agencies about the harmful effects of FIS on the economy of the country and have appropriate coordination mechanisms to effectively deal with FIS. There is need to re-orient research priorities for finding out various cost effective methods to control and manage the existing FIS.- Some Options for Improving the Management of the IFS Cadre

Forestry education and training in India, has a long history of more than 138 years. Over the years, the role of foresters has changed from mere provider of timber for developmental activities and revenue to the government to that of an environmentalist and conservationist and one who takes care of livelihood concerns of the local communities. To enable them discharge the dynamic and multifarious roles, efforts are being made by the Central Government to continuously build capacity of the forestry personnel and to provide quality forestry education to those who are aspiring for careers in forestry. However, it is necessary to conduct thorough review of the forestry education being imparted by the various institutions in the country to assess the requirement of trained forestry personnel by the public and private sectors and training needs analysis of the forestry personnel so as to appropriately equip them for intensive and sustainable management of forest and wildlife resources.- Gregarious Flowering of Bamboos in North-east India - Need for Intensive Management
