चिपको आन्दोलन एक पर्यावरण-रक्षा का आन्दोलन है। यह भारत के उत्तराखण्ड राज्य (तब उत्तर प्रदेश का भाग) में किसानो ने वृक्षों की कटाई का विरोध करने के लिए किया था। वे राज्य के वन विभाग के ठेकेदारों द्वारा वनों की कटाई का विरोध कर रहे थे और उन पर अपना परम्परागत अधिकार जता रहे थे।

यह आन्दोलन तत्कालीन उत्तर प्रदेश के चमोली जिले में सन १९७३ में प्रारम्भ हुआ। एक दशक के अन्दर यह पूरे उत्तराखण्ड क्षेत्र में फैल गया। चिपको आन्दोलन की एक मुख्य बात थी कि इसमें स्त्रियों ने भारी संख्या में भाग लिया था। इस आन्दोलन की शुरुवात १९७३ में भारत के प्रसिद्ध पर्यावरणविद् सुन्दरलाल बहुगुणा, चण्डीप्रसाद भट्ट तथा श्रीमती गौरादेवी के नेत्रत्व मे हुई थी:

In English Language-
The Chipko Movement or Chipko Andolan'was primarily a forest conservation movement in India that began in 1973 and went on to become a rallying point for many future environmental movements all over the world it created a precedent for starting of non-violent protest in India,[1] and its success meant that the world immediately took notice of this non violent movement, which was to inspire in time many such eco-groups by helping to slow down the rapid deforestation, expose vested interests, increase ecological awareness, and demonstrate the viability of people power. Above all, it stirred up the existing civil society in India, which began to address the issues of tribal and marginalized people. Today, beyond the eco-socialism hue, it is being seen increasingly as anecofeminism movement. Although many of its leaders were men, women were not only its backbone, but also its mainstay, because they were the ones most affected by the rampant deforestation,[2] which led to a lack of firewood and fodder as well as water for drinking and irrigation. Over the years they also became primary stakeholders in a majority of the afforestation work that happened under the Chipko movement.[3][4][5]In 1987, the Chipko movement was awarded the Right Livelihood Award.[6] The chipko aandolan is a movement that practised theGandhian methods of Satyagraha where both male and female activists played vital roles, including Gaura Devi, Sudesha Devi, Bachni Devi and Chandi Prasad Bhatt.

'Chipko Andolan (Hug the TreesMovement) was a movement started by women of Reni village in Garhwal, who hugged the tree trunks preventing the contractors from felling the trees. This Andolan quickly spread to other parts of the country and forced the government to rethink their priorities in the use of forest produce.
