Sustaining natural resources through community management : a framework for action
Jain, Nihal C.
Community management of natural resources can be promoted by providing an incentive environment to help ensure the flow of benefits to communities through the establishment of regulated access and rational management of common property natural resources. Clarification of the rights and responsibilities of community groups and measures to improve market effectiveness to improve market effectiveness provide a necessary foundation for this incentive environment. In addition, measures to promote economic rationality for resource use and the provision of tangible incentives are needed to help motivate community groups. Accordingly, state agencies should help ensure efficient support services and a facilitating atmosphere and that all the necessary elements of the policy framework are integrated to create a favorable incentive environment for community management.
