Abstract

The Indian Subcontinent, though mired in poverty and overpopulation, contains one of the world's richest natural resource bases. As political and economic forces push the region to development, the future of the South Asian environment remains unclear. The countries of the region still face the question of how to transform their environmental resolve into true cooperation. In 1985, representatives from Nepal, India, Bhutan, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Bangladesh came together in Dhaka to discuss worsening conditions in their countries. Agreeing that many of the problems of each country were common to the region as a whole, the assembly formally identified the need for international cooperation. The South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (saarc) was thus formed to respond to the growing need for transnational action.
