This report is a description of what can happen when certain management techniques are put before environmental administration practitioners, and an attempt to draw out the most interesting consequences of that experience. It is primarily intended to reach certain groups for whom management techniques may be useful, such as the following: * Managers who must deal with developmental and environmental issues. They may find practical management systems and techniques here for their intra-organizational structures. * Funding agencies concerned with natural resource development, for whom the insights here may be useful in clarifying the complexity of resource allocation where several policy and implementing agencies are involved. * Training and research institutions the report may help in their task of identifying and improving skills for environmental management systems, and the learning processes in such systems. * Volunteer associations interested in influencing the governmental process. They may find the report a useful reference in identifying relevant and urgent issues, the key actors and procedures critical to resolving issues, and in creating more effective participation.
