The programme is designed to provide the knowledge, understanding and skills for participants who have career aspirations in organisations with responsibilities for the planning, decision-making and management processes that coordinate natural-resource use towards the optimisation of long-term benefits while minimising conflict among stakeholders. Such organisations (which may include both governmental and non-governmental agencies) are likely to operate at a scale where integrated and strategic approaches to natural-resource use are necessary to achieve balance in the wider economic, social and environmental requirement of society.
Learning Outcomes Participants will gain:
* understanding of both the integrated nature of natural-resource-use interactions and hence the need for integrated intervention and management;
* appreciation of the challenges of developing integrated management practices;
* skills in the analysis, planning and management of natural-resource utilisation;
* knowledge of policy directives and instruments affecting natural resources.
Contents
