Bioresources Development and Conservation Programme (BDCP) is a not-for-profit, non-governmental, knowledge based organization dedicated to creatinginnovative mechanisms for sustainable development that encompass the interface between health and the environment. Our goal is to provide communities with the tools and information they need to preserve their self-sufficiency in an increasingly industrialized world, while retaining as much of their cultural framework as possible.

Indigenous traditional knowledge of natural resource management is vital to the maintenance of the worlds’ biological resources. It embodies a holistic relationship in symbolic and material life. This encocentric and dynamic idealogy views the environment as a web of social relationships between a people and the species with which they share space, including their rights to health and sustinable livelihoods.

As the globalisation process unfolds, the balance between human consuption and natural regeneration is further desrupted. The path that we have chosen aims to restore this balance through the recognition of the interdependent relationships within ecological systems, sustinable living, community involvement and collaboration as integral ingredients of natural resources management, and the larger role of biological resources in adressing the global common good.
