Consistent with the mission of the Bhutan Ecological Society, the journal publishes research articles, reviews, short communications, and perspectives from the many sectors—including legal, education, research, management, religious, and media—that contribute to understanding and developing solutions for the Himalaya’s most pressing environmental problems.

We are now accepting submissions on the topic relevant to environment and conservation.  Original submissions will be accepted for the following categories:
