Original methods. Highly qualified personnel.

The Institute of Nature Management is one of the oldest institutes of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, conducting research in the field of Earth sciences. The Institute's activities are aimed at addressing issues of rational nature management and environmental protection in collaboration with international organizations.

The Institute conducts research in the following areas:
- Developing scientific foundations for nature management and environmental protection;
- Assessing, forecasting, and optimizing anthropogenic impacts on natural systems;
- Scientific justification for the development of resource-saving technologies for the extraction, processing, and use of solid fossil fuels;
- Studying the formation conditions and assessing the condition of fresh drinking and mineral waters;
- Studying the geodynamics of the earth's crust and modern geological processes in Belarus;
- Geoecological justification for the design and placement of critical structures and environmentally hazardous facilities (nuclear power plants, hydroelectric power plants, underground gas storage facilities, highly toxic waste disposal sites, etc.);
- environmental diagnostics using modern aerospace, ground-based, telecommunications, and information-measuring tools;
- study of the global and regional climate and its changes under the influence of natural and anthropogenic factors; forecasting climate change and its impacts.

The Institute participates in scientific support for six international conventions:
- Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution;
- Ramsar Convention on Wetlands;
- UN Framework Convention on Climate Change;
- Stockholm Convention on POPs;
- UN Convention to Combat Desertification/Land Degradation;
- Convention on Biological Diversity.

The Institute maintains scientific contacts with organizations in Russia, Ukraine, Poland, China, the Baltic States, Armenia, and Vietnam.
