Permaculture as ecological management tool (#journal)
Conventional sustainable resource management systems are based on
neoclassical economics that ignore nature's pattern and
therefore are not capable of sustainable management of
resources. Environmentalists are lately advocating incorporation of
Permaculture as holistic approach based on ethics, equitable interaction
with eco-systems to obtain sustainability. The paper
uses Permaculture to develop a pragmatic tool for policy development. This tool
augments management tasks by integrating recording of natural assets,
monitoring of key performance indicators and integration of sectorial
policies in real time, bringing out policy as a truly live document. The
tool enhances the edifice process, balancing short term viewpoints and
long term development to secure renewability of natural resources.
