Natural
resources Management
A main focus of CORCAH is the
integrated natural resources management. We want to ensure that
natural resources are protected. We work with regional, national and
international organizations to make good natural resources
management decisions.
Natural resources management is the practical application of
ecosystem management, habitat conservation, and sustainable land
management towards protecting, conserving, and using natural
resources. The natural resources available to people for food and
other production, maintaining healthy lives, and the pleasure of a
beautiful landscape need to be protected, and must be managed
skillfully so that they are able to maintain our basic ability to
produce food for the nine billion people that the world is expected
to have by 2050.
Fresh water supplies - essential for agricultural production, for
drinking, for maintenance of important habitats of animals – are
projected to be inadequate to meet the needs of one-third of the
world’s population. More than 2 million children are estimated to
die each year from diseases caused by drinking dirty water.
At CORCAH, we take an integrated approach to natural resources
management. We are eager to work with partners to improve health,
increase agricultural productivity, and protect the environment.
