Rationale
CPRNet is concerned with resource management regimes that require collaborative - often group-based - action. Guided by the above considerations, as well as the need for harnessing the potential of CPRs as an important component of development strategies in its own right, CPRNet aims to:
- Enhance the awareness about CPRs and their importance within the World Bank Group as institutional modalities, but also as resources that are managed collectively, as well as susceptible to induced institutional development for CPRs
- Increase the understanding of the dynamic interplay between various types of property rights' regimes on the local level, and the importance of this for a correct targeting of World Bank Group investment operations
- Function as a clearinghouse for information and data on CPRs as they pertain to World Bank Group operations
- Create partnerships between World Bank Group staff and outside practitioners, whether individuals or organizations, through establishing and maintaining effective channels of communication (including, e.g., email, Newsletter and website), as communication with local practitioners is fundamental to the World Bank Group's work
- Link World Bank Group staff that need specific property rights-related operational input with outside practitioners and experts
- Define the salient characteristics of and conditions for viability of institutions for natural resources management
- Define and facilitate pro-active policies and operational work aimed at protection of CPRs
