People and Resource Dynamics in Mountain Watersheds of the Hindu Kush-Himalayas (PARDYP)

Description: Das Projekt "People and Resource Dynamics in Mountain Watersheds of the Hindu Kush-Himalayas (PARDYP)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Universität Zürich, Geographisches Institut durchgeführt. The Human Geography Division contributes to the scientific support of PARDYP in the field of socio-economic issues of natural resource management. PARDYP (People and Resource Dynamics Project) is a regional research project (operational in Pakistan, India, Nepal and China) based at ICIMOD (International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development) in Kathmandu, and is funded by SDC and IDRC. The project concentrates on livelihood strategies and access to natural resources. It is not only the physical availability that enables people in rural areas to sustain their livelihoods. The institutional setup (in form of laws, rules and traditions) is even more relevant in shaping the access to natural resources like forests and water. Access is understood here as the 'capability to profit' from a specific resource. With the methodological tool of comparative livelihood surveys in three countries, it is aimed to identify distinctions and similarities of livelihood strategies in remote areas of the Himalaya, including non-natural resource based activities like labour migration and trade.
