Dr. Pankaj Srivastava, IFS


Director, IIFM
Established in 1982 as an autonomous
institution under the Ministry of Environment,
Forest and Climate Change, Government of
India, IIFM was conceptualized in response to
the recommendations of the National

About Commission on Agriculture. The impetus


generated by these recommendations
culminated in an alliance with the Indian
Institute of Management, Ahmedabad through
which the philosophy and raison d’erte of IIFM
was evolved. The Swedish International
Development Agency also contributed
financially and technically in establishing the
Institute. Since its inception, IIFM has been
home to some of the most brilliant young
minds who are constantly raising the bar of
excellence in this dynamic field.
Situated in the City of Lakes, the Indian
Institute of Forest Management, Bhopal is
uniquely positioned in South Asia in its
endeavor to blend the concepts of
environment and development management
with corporate management expertise.
Selection Process

Each batch is selected through an extremely stringent selection process, consisting of several
filters to get the best minds in the country. The present batch has been selected from a pool of top
