Description/notes
CNRS became operational in 1994 and is one of the pro-environmental NGOs in Bangladesh. The Idea of developing an institution like CNRS first surfaced in 1993 while the initiators were involved in FAP-16 (environmental study) field studies. In course of field works, the need for an institution like CNRS was felt necessary to demonstrate ecosystem-based approaches to natural resources aiming at sensitizing policy stakeholders including wider communities to foster community-based natural resources management in Bangladesh
