Abstract

The ICIMOD has implemented the Participatory Action Research Programme on Equity and Poverty in the Management of Common Property Resources in the Hindu Kush-Himalayas since April 2001. The programme involves 14 case studies in six countries (Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Nepal, and Pakistan) covering three common property resources: forests, water, and rangelands. The highlights of these studies are discussed.
