Environment and Natural Resource Management (ENRM)

This program area supports work that is field-based: action and policy research that offers viable alternatives to or improves current environmental management practices and institutions. These provide practical approaches to enhancing food and water security, human health, the quality of natural resources, democratic participation, governance, and equity. Programs in this area operate in rural, peri-urban, and urban seetings, taking into account the regional context and specificities.

Under this Program Area, IDRC works on 3 main Program Initiatives or Research Areas, namely: Ecosystem Approaches to Human Health (EcoHealth), Urban Poverty and Environment (UPE), and Rural Poverty and Environment (RPE).

Multidonor Projects

Within the ENRM Program Area, IDRC is supporting a regional project in MENA called the Regional Water Demand Initiative (WaDImena), which is a five-year project (2004-2009) coordinated by IDRC in partnership with the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD). WaDImena contributes to effective water governance by enhancing water use efficiency, equity, and sustainability within the MENA region. More about WaDImena

In addition, the ENRM has started the Climate Change Adaptation in Africa Research and Capacity Development Program (CCAA), which is a 5 year program that covers Algeria, Egypt, Morocco, and Tunisia in addition to all other African countries. More about CCAA
