Definition
- The International Human Dimensions Programme on Global Environmental Change (IHDP) was originally launched in 1990 by ISSC as the Human Dimensions Programme (HDP). The restructured IHDP is a full partner with the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP), the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) and DIVERSITAS. These GEC programmes focus on climatic, biogeochemical, socio-economic and biodiversity processes related to global environmental change. In February 1996, ICSU joined ISSC as co-sponsor of the IHDP. IHDP is an international, interdisciplinary, non-governmental social science programme dedicated to pro-moting and co-ordinating research aimed at describing, analysing and understanding the human dimensions of global environmental change. In order to accomplish its goals, IHDP: - links researchers, policy-makers and stakeholders, - promotes synergies among national and regional research committees and programmes - identifies new research priorities, provides a focus and new frameworks for interdisciplinary research, and - facilitates the dissemination of research results. This strategy is based on a bottom-up approach which builds upon existing researchers and research results around the world. Particular emphasis is placed on expanding and strengthening the network of national human dimensions committees and programmes and on enhancing the IHDP's capacity to support them.
