Title: The new generation of watershed management programmes and projects
Description: On the occasion of the International Year of Mountains - 2002, FAO and its partners undertook a large-scale assessment and global review of the current status and future trends of integrated and participatory watershed management. The overall objectives were to promote the exchange and dissemination of experiences in implementing watershed management projects in the decade from 1990 to 2000 and to identify the vision for a new generation of watershed management programs and projects. This resource book represents a summary and critical analysis of the rich discussions and vast material that emerged during the review, as well as the review's findings and recommendations. It presents the state of the art in watershed management, promotes further reflection and creative thinking and proposes new ideas and approaches for future watershed management programs and projects.--Publisher's description.
