Key lessons learned from Xiamen experince
Environmental and resources management projects
are effective if there is political will and support from
the government, both national and local.
Linking scientists and other technical experts with the
political decision makers.
The ability of local citizens to contribute and improve
the conditions of their environment succeeds, based
on their awareness, training and willingness to take
action.
