Environmental Management (Natural / Coastal Resources Management)

Natural resources management and coastal resources management include strategies and approaches to ensure sustainable use of water and land and to address other environmental challenges. Activities can range from watershed management to agro-forestry, agriculture, ecotourism, non-timber forest products (NTFPs), integrated pest management and the introduction of fuel efficient stoves. A wide array of training materials have been developed focusing on these issues, a selection of which are included in this section. Resources included here are most applicable to PHE projects and are recommended for integrated projects.
