River Basin
Project is a
civil society initiative to proactively explore options for
futuristic resources management in this river basin. It follows a
holistic approach and tries to connect basin stakeholders’
across space and time and thereby addressing their livelihood
concerns for the present and future, across the basin landscape. It
also attempts to blend concerns for environment with livelihood,
goals of local with global development, issues of rights with market
and focus of sustainability with equity. Keeping the vulnerable
livelihoods in different locations in the basin as the prime focus,
this innovative basin project, aspires to address these multiple
concerns and objectives through a collaborative and participatory
action research framework with focus on ‘ research based
information’. By enabling access to critical basin information,
it aims to enhance the voice of basin stakeholders’ right from
the community to the decision makers, in developing a vision and
action paths for socially, economically and environmentally
responsible basin resources utilization.
