Miscellaneous Yaron, G.; Moyini, Y.; Wasike, D.; Kabi, M.; Barungi, M. 2004 GY Associates, Harpenden, UK, 17 pp. The Poverty Eradication Action Plan (PEAP) revision provides an opportunity to consider the linkage of environment
and natural resources (ENR) and poverty-reducing growth. This link with poverty reduction
rests on the vital role of ENR in GDP, the ability of GDP growth to reach the poor, and the need for sustainable growth. DFID funded a short study to produce summary and technical papers for the PEAP sub-committee and the ENR sector working group. The study aimed to contribute to the PEAP revision process by highlighting how a fuller
consideration of how improved ENR management can maintain, enhance and minimise risks
associated with the delivery of core PEAP objectives, especially economic growth.
Conversely it shows how failure to consider these issues significantly diminishes the likelihood of achieving PEAP targets in the medium to long term.
