  <course-description>&lt;p&gt;Particular objectives are to consider whether and how principles of integrated environmental management of natural resources are being recognised and progressed through existing lpolicy design and legal responses: to what extent legal requirements for management rely on principles of ecologically sustainable development: to consider the range of management tools employed in natural resources legislation (such as strategic management planning, incentive based as well as regulatory mechanisms, licensing of activities, and agreements with private landowners): to consider legal obligations for environment protection that are part of natural resources decision-making: and to gain a broad overview of the systems for management of particular natural resources that are not currently covered by other specialist options; for example land degradation, fisheries, and forests.&lt;/p&gt;</course-description>

  <learning-outcomes>The purpose of this course is to explore the development of government policy with respect to the environmental management of natural resources and analyse how effectively policy has been translated into environmental law. The course concentrates upon regulatory and incentive based approaches to natural resources management and explores the legal regimes that have been created to implement and enforce policy directions. Whilst the course adopts a whole of government, integrated approach to policy development and legal responses, it also tests policy design and implementation by taking&amp;nbsp; a focused look at the management of particular natural resources; particularly those that are not dealt with in other options in the Environmental Law prgramme, such as fisheries and forests. This is an overview course that is intended to complement existing options in other law courses that deal specifically with the exploitation of natural resources by concentrating upon the environmental responsibilities of those who use and manage natural resources; and to complement those courses in the MEL programme that deal specifically with particular natural resources such as water as coastal issues.</learning-outcomes>
