Capacity building for Gramapanchyat to undertake NRM

Guiding Principles

• Devolution of responsibility: The project will promote accountable and financially transparent decision-making at the local level through the decentralised administrative institution of the Gram Panchayat.
• Participation: Local governance will be promoted as a mechanism for the greater participation of the socially and economically marginalized members of the community in their own development.
• Gender & Equity: Emphasis will be given to enhancing the capacities of women, dalits and adivasis in decision-making forums and to systematically facilitate their improved access to resources.
• Appropriate low cost technologies: The project will seek the participatory development of appropriate low-cost, easy to maintain conservation measures based on a blend of indigenous and modern practices.
