Climate change and increased resource scarcity provide a new context for effective natural resource management. This report examines appropriate roles for the public and private sectors, as well as the relationship between them, in seeking to ensure that these transitions occur with the best possible contribution towards inclusive and sustainable growth in developing countries so that natural resources are managed equitably and sustainably for a better future. The key research question guiding this outline is: what does the evidence tell us about the appropriate roles of the public and private sector, and their interactions, in managing natural resources for inclusive and sustainable growth in the context of increased scarcity and climate change.
