Outcomes from this research will be presented to local government departments with responsibility for managing and planning development in PU Kolkata. Findings will be disseminated to local NGOs, CBOs and other development-orientated agencies to help them target resources. Project partners and DFID will use knowledge generated concerning opportunities to enhance poor livelihoods through improved PU natural resource management, to formulate future research projects that address specific problems.

Outcomes are being communicated via a variety of media pathways and a selection of materials is presented here to extend the growing knowledge base. Reports presented here are configured as either Microsoft Word (.doc) or Adobe (.pdf) files; presentations have been prepared using PowerPoint (.pps). If, however, you experience problems please contact the project coordinator.
