CARE ICD Network

Initiative I0033
[edit]

Implementing orgCARE International

Summary
CARE’s Integrated Conservation and Development (ICD) network is a global initiative involving CARE and its partners in 20 countries which aims to enhance the impact of natural resource management programmes in terms of promoting social justice and equity in the use, sustainable management and conservation of natural resources. This is achieved through 3 complementary strategies: capacity building, development of new regional/global initiatives, and global level advocacy.

CARE’s ICD network, which started in May 1999, was initially comprised primarily of classical integrated conservation development projects targeting areas of high biodiversity. More recently the network, renamed the CARE Poverty and Environment Network, has expanded its scope beyond the traditional domain of ICD (i.e. areas of high biodiversity) to address a broader range of natural resource management and environmental issues, but retaining a focus on social justice and equity.

Outputs
The network links nearly 40 projects in 25 different countries.

Starts
May 1999
