This approach emphasizes the involvement of local communities in the stewardship and sustainable management of natural resources.

Community Based Natural Resource Management [CBNRM] is a decentralized, community-driven approach to managing natural resources. It aims to balance environmental conservation with the socio-economic needs of local communities. By devolving decision-making power and authority from central governments to local communities, Community Based Natural Resource Management [CBNRM] fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility among community members.

By focusing on Community Based Natural Resource Management [CBNRM] , the Atacama Consulting Foundation aims to create a sustainable future where communities thrive alongside their natural environments.
