NATURAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT

NATURAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT is part of an integrated webdomain system that together make up NATURE WORLDWIDE, the official website of the World Institute for Conservation and Environment, WICE. It is the heart of an seamlessly integrated network of non-profit web sites that cause you to jump from one domain to the other, without change of format. The navigation bar on your left will help you find your way through the system.

NATURE WORLDWIDE deals with different topics on nature, the conservation of nature, natural resources management and most and for all, on nature and national parks and protected areas:

A roadmap to these different themes is given on our general natural resources management page or you can follow the links from our navigation bar on the left side of this page or our site map.

You will find for downloading state of the art tools for all of your natural resources management needs:

All tools are supported by thoroughly prepared scientific manuals prepared by some of the world most renowned ecologists and natural resources management specialists. All tools have been prepared in collaborate agreements (like joint financing or technical contributions) of the World Bank, UNDP, GEF, FAO, IUCN/WCPA.
