摘要

Countries in South Asia currently face tremendous challenges in managing economic growth, human development, and environmental change. Over the last decade, South Asia, with an average GDP growth rate of 5 per cent, was the second fastest growing developing region in the world. However, the region is also home to 40 per cent of the world's poor (World Bank, 2001). South Asia also faces several serious natural resource degradation and pollution problems, which influence poverty and growth outcomes. Recent estimates that include the loss in natural capital in wealth calculations show that net wealth per capita has actually declined over the last few decades in this region. Between 1970 and 1993, net wealth per capita declined by an annual average of 2.6 per cent in Bangladesh, 3 per cent in Nepal, and 1.9 per cent in Pakistan. It stayed at a constant 0 per cent in India (Dasgupta, 2001b: Chapter 10, Table 7). There are a number of economists and several excellent institutions working on environmental and natural resource problems in South Asia. SANDEE tries to facilitate their work by supporting research, training, and policy analyses related to economic development, poverty reduction, and environmental change. We hope that this will contribute to learning, cross-border sharing, and real solutions to South Asia's environmental problems.
