  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000008714_MemberRetail_Member">The Fund offers opportunities for long-term capital appreciation with a moderate degree of risk through a mix of smaller company stocks that meet the Fund&amp;#8217;s investment criteria, including financial, sustainability and social responsibility factors. The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, including borrowings for investment purposes, in common stocks of small companies. The Fund will provide shareholders with at least 60 days&amp;#8217; notice before changing this 80% policy. Calvert defines small companies generally as having a market capitalization of $3 billion or less at the time of initial purchase. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fund may also invest up to 25% of its net assets in foreign securities. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The investment process combines active stock selection and systematic portfolio construction to produce a portfolio that is capable of achieving positive excess returns with relatively low active risk relative to the Fund&amp;#8217;s benchmark. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by implementing an investment strategy based on the Advisor&amp;#8217;s stock selection models, which evaluate a broad range of small-cap securities. Position adjustments will take place only to the extent that planned changes to the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments have a sufficiently greater probability of producing positive excess returns than does the existing portfolio. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sustainable and Socially Responsible Investing. The Fund seeks to invest in companies and other enterprises that demonstrate positive environmental, social and governance performance as they address corporate responsibility and sustainability challenges. Calvert believes that there are long-term benefits in an investment philosophy that attaches material weight to the environment, workplace relations, human rights, Indigenous Peoples&amp;#8217; rights, community relations, product safety and impact, and corporate governance and business ethics. Calvert also believes that managing risks and opportunities related to these issues can contribute positively to company performance as well as to investment performance over time. The Fund has sustainable and socially responsible investment criteria that reflect specific types of companies in which the Fund seeks to invest and seeks to avoid investing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Investments are first selected for financial soundness and then evaluated according to the Fund&amp;#8217;s sustainable and socially responsible investment criteria. Investments must be consistent with the Fund&amp;#8217;s current investment criteria, including financial, sustainability and social responsibility factors, the application of which is in the economic interest of the Fund and its shareholders.</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

  <rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000008714_MemberRetail_Member">You could lose money on your investment in the Fund, or the Fund could underperform, because of the risks described below. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Management Risk. Individual investments of the Fund may not perform as expected, and the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio management practices may not achieve the desired result. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stock Market Risk. The market prices of stocks held by the Fund may fall. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Common Stock Risk. Although common stocks have a history of long-term growth in value, their prices fluctuate based on changes in a company&amp;#8217;s financial condition, on overall market and economic conditions, and on investors&amp;#8217; perception of a company&amp;#8217;s well-being. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Small-Cap Company Risk. Prices of small-cap stocks can be more volatile than those of larger, more established companies. Small-cap companies are more likely to have more limited product lines, fewer capital resources and less depth of management than larger companies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign Securities Risk. Investing in foreign securities involves additional risks relating to political, social, and economic developments abroad. Other risks result from differences between regulations that apply to U.S. and foreign issuers and markets, and the potential for foreign markets to be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. markets. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign Currency Risk. Securities that trade or are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be adversely affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. When the U.S. dollar strengthens relative to a foreign currency, the U.S. dollar value of an investment denominated in that currency will typically fall.</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000017171_MemberRetail_Member">The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, including borrowings for investment purposes, in equity securities of U.S. and non-U.S. companies whose main business is alternative energy or that are significantly involved in the alternative energy sector. The Fund will provide shareholders with at least 60 days&amp;#8217; notice before changing this 80% policy. The Fund concentrates (invests more than 25% of its total assets) in the alternative energy industry. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alternative energy includes renewable energy (solar, wind, geothermal, biofuel, hydrogen, biomass and other renewable energy sources that may be developed in the future), technologies that enable these sources to be tapped, and services or technologies that conserve or enable more efficient use of energy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br/&gt;A company whose main business is alternative energy or that is significantly involved in the alternative energy sector will (1) derive at least 50% of its revenues or earnings from alternative energy activities; (2) devote at least 50% of its assets to such activities; or (3) be included in one of the following alternative energy indices: Ardour Global Alternative Energy Index (Composite)&lt;sup&gt;SM&lt;/sup&gt;; Merrill Lynch Renewable Energy Index; S&amp;amp;P Global Alternative Energy Index; WilderHill New Energy Global Innovation Index; and WilderHill Clean Energy Index. For more information on these indices, see &amp;#8220;Description of Alternative Energy Indices&amp;#8221; in this Prospectus. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fund invests primarily in common stocks. The Fund invests in securities of all market capitalizations, but it may contain more small- and mid-cap stocks than large-cap stocks because many alternative energy companies are relatively new. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fund is &amp;#8220;non-diversified,&amp;#8221; which means it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than a &amp;#8220;diversified&amp;#8221; fund. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fund may invest in several countries in different geographic regions of the world (at least three different countries), and the Subadvisor&amp;#8217;s stock selection process does not utilize a pre-determined geographic allocation. The Fund primarily invests in developed countries but may purchase securities in emerging markets. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fund may invest in American Depositary Receipts (&amp;#8220;ADRs&amp;#8221;), which may be sponsored or unsponsored, and Global Depositary Receipts (&amp;#8220;GDRs&amp;#8221;). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Subadvisor combines quantitative and fundamental processes. To develop the investible universe, the Subadvisor employs long-term strategic allocations for each sub-activity within the alternative energy sector. Fundamental and qualitative models evaluate stocks from the bottom up, focused on fundamental analysis of stocks of individual companies across all geographic regions. Top-down views on industries, sectors or regions act as risk controls in portfolio construction. The Subadvisor consults a panel of experts in the alternative energy field to obtain research and insight on political, economic and regional trends with respect to alternative energy segments. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sustainable and Socially Responsible Investing. The Fund will invest in ways consistent with Calvert&amp;#8217;s philosophy that long-term rewards to investors will come from companies and other entities whose products, services, and methods contribute to a more sustainable future. The Fund has sustainable and socially responsible investment criteria that reflect specific types of companies in which the Fund seeks to invest and seeks to avoid investing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Investments are first selected for financial soundness and then evaluated according to the Fund&amp;#8217;s sustainable and socially responsible investment criteria. Investments must be consistent with the Fund&amp;#8217;s current investment criteria, including financial, sustainability and social responsibility factors, the application of which is in the economic interest of the Fund and its shareholders.</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

  <rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000017171_MemberRetail_Member">You could lose money on your investment in the Fund, or the Fund could underperform, because of the risks described below. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Non-diversification Risk. Because the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than a diversified fund, the gains or losses on a single stock may have greater impact on the Fund than a diversified fund. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Energy Sector and Energy Price Risks. Stocks that comprise the energy sector may fall in value. Prices of energy (including traditional sources of energy such as oil, gas, or electricity) or alternative energy may fall. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alternative Energy Industry Risk. The alternative energy industry can be significantly affected by obsolescence of existing technology, short product lifecycles, falling prices and profits, competition from new market entrants and general economic conditions. The industry can also be significantly affected by fluctuations in energy prices and supply and demand of alternative energy fuels, energy conservation, the success of exploration projects and tax and other government regulations and policies. Companies in this industry could be adversely affected by commodity price volatility, imposition of import controls, increased competition, depletion of resources, technological developments and labor relations. Changes in U.S., European and other governments&amp;#8217; policies towards alternative energy also may adversely affect Fund performance. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Concentration Risk. A downturn in the alternative energy industry would impact the Fund more than a fund that does not concentrate in this industry. By focusing on a specific sector or industry, the Fund may be more volatile than a typical mutual fund. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Management Risk. Individual investments of the Fund may not perform as expected, and the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio management practices may not achieve the desired result. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stock Market Risk. The market prices of stocks held by the Fund may fall. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Common Stock Risk. Although common stocks have a history of long-term growth in value, their prices fluctuate based on changes in a company&amp;#8217;s financial condition, on overall market and economic conditions, and on investors&amp;#8217; perception of a company&amp;#8217;s well-being. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign Securities Risk. Investing in foreign securities involves additional risks relating to political, social, and economic developments abroad. Other risks result from differences between regulations that apply to U.S. and foreign issuers and markets, and the potential for foreign markets to be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. markets. Foreign securities include ADRs and GDRs. Unsponsored ADRs involve additional risks because U.S. reporting requirements do not apply and the issuing bank will recover shareholder distribution costs from movement of share prices and payment of dividends. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign Currency Risk. Securities that trade or are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be adversely affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. When the U.S. dollar strengthens relative to a foreign currency, the U.S. dollar value of an investment denominated in that currency will typically fall. GDRs can involve direct currency risk since, unlike ADRs, they may not be U.S. dollar-denominated. ADRs indirectly bear currency risk because they represent an interest in securities that are not denominated in U.S. dollars. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign Currency Transactions Risk. Transactions in foreign currency in connection with the purchase and sale of investments in foreign markets may result in foreign currency exposure and the potential for losses due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. These losses may occur without regard to the quality or performance of the investment itself. Foreign currency transactions may also prevent the Fund from realizing profits on favorable movements in exchange rates. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of investing in emerging market securities are greater than those of investing in securities of developed foreign countries. These risks include volatile currency exchange rates, periods of high inflation, increased risk of default, greater social, economic and political uncertainty and instability, less governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets, weaker auditing and financial reporting standards, lack of liquidity in the markets, and the significantly smaller market capitalizations of emerging market issuers. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Market Capitalization Risks. Large-cap companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges such as changes in technology, and also may not be able to attain the high growth rate of successful smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. Prices of small-cap and mid-cap stocks can be more volatile than those of larger, more established companies. Small-cap and mid-cap companies are more likely to have more limited product lines, fewer capital resources and less depth of management than larger companies. Prices of micro-cap securities are generally even more volatile and their markets are even less liquid relative to small-cap, mid-cap and large-cap securities.</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the &amp;#8220;Example&amp;#8221;, affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s performance.

  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000017171_MemberInstitutional_Member">The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, including borrowings for investment purposes, in equity securities of U.S. and non-U.S. companies whose main business is alternative energy or that are significantly involved in the alternative energy sector. The Fund will provide shareholders with at least 60 days&amp;#8217; notice before changing this 80% policy. The Fund concentrates (invests more than 25% of its total assets) in the alternative energy industry.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Alternative energy includes renewable energy (solar, wind, geothermal, biofuel, hydrogen, biomass and other renewable energy sources that may be developed in the future), technologies that enable these sources to be tapped, and services or technologies that conserve or enable more efficient use of energy.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;A company whose main business is alternative energy or that is significantly involved in the alternative energy sector will (1) derive at least 50% of its revenues or earnings from alternative energy activities; (2) devote at least 50% of its assets to such activities; or (3) be included in one of the following alternative energy indices: Ardour Global Alternative Energy Index (Composite)&lt;sup&gt;SM&lt;/sup&gt;; Merrill Lynch Renewable Energy Index; S&amp;amp;P Global Alternative Energy Index; WilderHill New Energy Global Innovation Index; and WilderHill Clean Energy Index. For more information on these indices, see &amp;#8220;Description of Alternative Energy Indices&amp;#8221; in this Prospectus.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund invests primarily in common stocks. The Fund invests in securities of all market capitalizations, but it may contain more small- and mid-cap stocks than large-cap stocks because many alternative energy companies are relatively new.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund is &amp;#8220;non-diversified,&amp;#8221; which means it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than a &amp;#8220;diversified&amp;#8221; fund.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund may invest in several countries in different geographic regions of the world (at least three different countries), and the Subadvisor&amp;#8217;s stock selection process does not utilize a predetermined geographic allocation. The Fund primarily invests in developed countries but may purchase securities in emerging markets.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund may invest in American Depositary Receipts (&amp;#8220;ADRs&amp;#8221;), which may be sponsored or unsponsored, and Global Depositary Receipts (&amp;#8220;GDRs&amp;#8221;).&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Subadvisor combines quantitative and fundamental processes. To develop the investible universe, the Subadvisor employs long-term strategic allocations for each sub-activity within the alternative energy sector. Fundamental and qualitative models evaluate stocks from the bottom up, focused on fundamental analysis of stocks of individual companies across all geographic regions. Top-down views on industries, sectors or regions act as risk controls in portfolio construction. The Subadvisor consults a panel of experts in the alternative energy field to obtain research and insight on political, economic and regional trends with respect to alternative energy segments.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Sustainable and Socially Responsible Investing. The Fund will invest in ways consistent with Calvert&amp;#8217;s philosophy that long-term rewards to investors will come from companies and other entities whose products, services, and methods contribute to a more sustainable future. The Fund has sustainable and socially responsible investment criteria that reflect specific types of companies in which the Fund seeks to invest and seeks to avoid investing.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Investments are first selected for financial soundness and then evaluated according to the Fund&amp;#8217;s sustainable and socially responsible investment criteria. Investments must be consistent with the Fund&amp;#8217;s current investment criteria, including financial, sustainability and social responsibility factors, the application of which is in the economic interest of the Fund and its shareholders.</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>
  <rr:RiskHeading contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000017171_MemberInstitutional_Member">&lt;b&gt;Principal Risks&lt;/b&gt;</rr:RiskHeading>
  <rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000017171_MemberInstitutional_Member">You could lose money on your investment in the Fund, or the Fund could underperform, because of the risks described below. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Non-diversification Risk. Because the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than a diversified fund, the gains or losses on a single stock may have greater impact on the Fund than a diversified fund.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Energy Sector and Energy Price Risks. Stocks that comprise the energy sector may fall in value. Prices of energy (including traditional sources of energy such as oil, gas, or electricity) or alternative energy may fall.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Alternative Energy Industry Risk. The alternative energy industry can be significantly affected by obsolescence of existing technology, short product lifecycles, falling prices and profits, competition from new market entrants and general economic conditions. The industry can also be significantly affected by fluctuations in energy prices and supply and demand of alternative energy fuels, energy conservation, the success of exploration projects and tax and other government regulations and policies. Companies in this industry could be adversely affected by commodity price volatility, imposition of import controls, increased competition, depletion of resources, technological developments and labor relations. Changes in U.S., European and other governments&amp;#8217; policies towards alternative energy also may adversely affect Fund performance.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Concentration Risk. A downturn in the alternative energy industry would impact the Fund more than a fund that does not concentrate in this industry. By focusing on a specific sector or industry, the Fund may be more volatile than a typical mutual fund.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Management Risk. Individual investments of the Fund may not perform as expected, and the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio management practices may not achieve the desired result.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Stock Market Risk. The market prices of stocks held by the Fund may fall.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Common Stock Risk. Although common stocks have a history of long-term growth in value, their prices fluctuate based on changes in a company&amp;#8217;s financial condition, on overall market and economic conditions, and on investors&amp;#8217; perception of a company&amp;#8217;s well-being.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Foreign Securities Risk. Investing in foreign securities involves additional risks relating to political, social, and economic developments abroad. Other risks result from differences between regulations that apply to U.S. and foreign issuers and markets, and the potential for foreign markets to be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. markets. Foreign securities include ADRs and GDRs. Unsponsored ADRs involve additional risks because U.S. reporting requirements do not apply and the issuing bank will recover shareholder distribution costs from movement of share prices and payment of dividends.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Foreign Currency Risk. Securities that trade or are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be adversely affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. When the U.S. dollar strengthens relative to a foreign currency, the U.S. dollar value of an investment denominated in that currency will typically fall. GDRs can involve direct currency risk since, unlike ADRs, they may not be U.S. dollar-denominated. ADRs indirectly bear currency risk because they represent an interest in securities that are not denominated in U.S. dollars.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Foreign Currency Transactions Risk. Transactions in foreign currency in connection with the purchase and sale of investments in foreign markets may result in foreign currency exposure and the potential for losses due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. These losses may occur without regard to the quality or performance of the investment itself. Foreign currency transactions may also prevent the Fund from realizing profits on favorable movements in exchange rates.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of investing in emerging market securities are greater than those of investing in securities of developed foreign countries. These risks include volatile currency exchange rates, periods of high inflation, increased risk of default, greater social, economic and political uncertainty and instability, less governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets, weaker auditing and financial reporting standards, lack of liquidity in the markets, and the significantly smaller market capitalizations of emerging market issuers.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Market Capitalization Risks. Large-cap companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges such as changes in technology, and also may not be able to attain the high growth rate of successful smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. Prices of small-cap and mid-cap stocks can be more volatile than those of larger, more established companies. Small-cap and mid-cap companies are more likely to have more limited product lines, fewer capital resources and less depth of management than larger companies. Prices of micro-cap securities are generally even more volatile and their markets are even less liquid relative to small-cap, mid-cap and large-cap securities.</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

The table compares the Fund&amp;#8217;s performance over time with that of an index and an average.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund&amp;#8217;s past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future.

Actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. The after-tax returns shown are not relevant to you if you hold your Fund shares through a tax-deferred arrangement such as a 401(k) plan or individual retirement account. The return after taxes on distributions and sale of Fund shares may be higher than the return before taxes because the calculation assumes that shareholders receive a tax benefit for capital losses incurred on the sale of their shares.</rr:PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock>

A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the &amp;#8220;Example&amp;#8221;, affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio turnover rate was 3% of its portfolio&amp;#8217;s average value.</rr:PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock>
  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000008714_MemberInstitutional_Member">The Fund offers opportunities for long-term capital appreciation with a moderate degree of risk through a mix of smaller company stocks that meet the Fund&amp;#8217;s investment criteria, including financial, sustainability and social responsibility factors. The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, including borrowings for investment purposes, in common stocks of small companies. The Fund will provide shareholders with at least 60 days&amp;#8217; notice before changing this 80% policy. Calvert defines small companies generally as having a market capitalization of $3 billion or less at the time of initial purchase.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; The Fund may also invest up to 25% of its net assets in foreign securities.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; The investment process combines active stock selection and systematic portfolio construction to produce a portfolio that is capable of achieving positive excess returns with relatively low active risk relative to the Fund&amp;#8217;s benchmark.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by implementing an investment strategy based on the Advisor&amp;#8217;s stock selection models, which evaluate a broad range of small-cap securities. Position adjustments will take place only to the extent that planned changes to the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments have a sufficiently greater probability of producing positive excess returns than does the existing portfolio.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Sustainable and Socially Responsible Investing. The Fund seeks to invest in companies and other enterprises that demonstrate positive environmental, social and governance performance as they address corporate responsibility and sustainability challenges. Calvert believes that there are long-term benefits in an investment philosophy that attaches material weight to the environment, workplace relations, human rights, Indigenous Peoples&amp;#8217; rights, community relations, product safety and impact, and corporate governance and business ethics. Calvert also believes that managing risks and opportunities related to these issues can contribute positively to company performance as well as to investment performance over time. The Fund has sustainable and socially responsible investment criteria that reflect specific types of companies in which the Fund seeks to invest and seeks to avoid investing.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Investments are first selected for financial soundness and then evaluated according to the Fund&amp;#8217;s sustainable and socially responsible investment criteria. Investments must be consistent with the Fund&amp;#8217;s current investment criteria, including financial, sustainability and social responsibility factors, the application of which is in the economic interest of the Fund and its shareholders.</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>
  <rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000008714_MemberInstitutional_Member">You could lose money on your investment in the Fund, or the Fund could underperform, because of the risks described below. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Management Risk. Individual investments of the Fund may not perform as expected, and the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio management practices may not achieve the desired result.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Stock Market Risk. The market prices of stocks held by the Fund may fall.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Common Stock Risk. Although common stocks have a history of long-term growth in value, their prices fluctuate based on changes in a company&amp;#8217;s financial condition, on overall market and economic conditions, and on investors&amp;#8217; perception of a company&amp;#8217;s well-being.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Small-Cap Company Risk. Prices of small-cap stocks can be more volatile than those of larger, more established companies. Small-cap companies are more likely to have more limited product lines, fewer capital resources and less depth of management than larger companies.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Foreign Securities Risk. Investing in foreign securities involves additional risks relating to political, social, and economic developments abroad. Other risks result from differences between regulations that apply to U.S. and foreign issuers and markets, and the potential for foreign markets to be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. markets.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; Foreign Currency Risk. Securities that trade or are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be adversely affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. When the U.S. dollar strengthens relative to a foreign currency, the U.S. dollar value of an investment denominated in that currency will typically fall.</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000024182_MemberRetail_Member">The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities of U.S. and non-U.S. companies whose main business is in the water sector or that are significantly involved in water-related services or technologies. The Fund will provide shareholders with at least 60 days&amp;#8217; notice before changing this 80% policy. The Fund concentrates (invests more than 25% of its total assets) in the water-related resource sector. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Investments in water-related resource sectors and companies include: water treatment, engineering, filtration, environmental controls, water related equipment, water and wastewater services, and water utilities. These companies may be involved in technolo gies, services and products including water distribution, water infrastructure and equipment, construction and engineering, environmental control and metering, and services or technologies that conserve or enable more efficient use of water. The Fund seeks to invest in companies directly involved in the management of water-related resources and not in packagers or resellers of bottled water. A company whose main business is in the water-related resource sector or that is significantly involved in the water-related resource sector will: (1) derive at least 50% of its revenues or earnings from water-related resource sector activities; (2) devote at least 50% of its assets to such activities; or (3) be included in one of the following water indices: S&amp;amp;P Global Water Index, ISE Water Index&lt;sup&gt;TM &lt;/sup&gt;and S-Network Global Water Index&lt;sup&gt;SM&lt;/sup&gt;. For more information on these indices, see &amp;#8220;Description of Water Indices&amp;#8221; in this Prospectus. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund invests primarily in common stocks. The Fund invests in securities of all market capitalizations, but it may contain more small- and mid-cap stocks than large-cap stocks because many water-related resource companies are relatively new. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Fund is &amp;#8220;non-diversified,&amp;#8221; which means it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than a &amp;#8220;diversified&amp;#8221; fund. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fund may invest in several countries in different geographic regions of the world (at least three different countries), and the Subadvisor&amp;#8217;s stock selection process does not utilize a predetermined geographic allocation. The Fund primarily invests in developed countries but may purchase securities in any geographic region (including in emerging markets) if the Subadvisor deems the company attractive. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fund may invest in American Depositary Receipts (&amp;#8220;ADRs&amp;#8221;), which may be sponsored or unsponsored, and Global Depositary Receipts (&amp;#8220;GDRs&amp;#8221;). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Subadvisor combines quantitative (initial screening and evaluation) and fundamental processes. The fundamental process focuses on company strength, growth, and cash flow measures, taking into account sustainable and socially responsible investing initiatives and policies. Top-down views on industries, sectors or regions act as risk controls in portfolio construction. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sustainable and Socially Responsible Investing. The Fund seeks to invest in a wide range of companies and other enterprises that demonstrate varying degrees of commitment and progress toward addressing key corporate responsibility and sustainability challenges. The Fund may invest in companies which already demonstrate leadership on environmental, social and governance issues relevant to their industries, as well as in companies which have yet to make significant progress on such issues but have the potential to do so. Engagement will encourage selected companies in the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio to address issues where sufficient commitment is lacking, or reinforce progress that may be underway. The Fund has sustainable and socially responsible investment criteria that reflect threshold responsibility standards used in determining whether a security qualifies as an investment for the Fund, and specific types of companies in which the Fund seeks to invest. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Investments are first selected for financial soundness and then evaluated according to the Fund&amp;#8217;s sustainable and socially respon- &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;sible investment criteria. Investments must be consistent with the Fund&amp;#8217;s current investment criteria, including financial, sustainability, and social responsibility factors, as well as its threshold responsibility standards, the application of which is in the economic interest of the Fund and its shareholders.</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

  <rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_01Feb2012_31Jan2013S000024182_MemberRetail_Member">You could lose money on your investment in the Fund, or the Fund could underperform, because of the risks described below. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Non-diversification Risk. Because the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than a diversified fund, the gains or losses on a single stock may have greater impact on the Fund than a diversified fund. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Water Sector Risk. Stocks that comprise the water-related resource sector may fall in value. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Water Industry Risks. The water industry can be significantly affected by economic trends or other conditions or developments, such as the availability of water, the level of rainfall and occurrence of other climatic events, changes in water consumption, new technologies relating to the supply of water, and water conservation. The industry can also be significantly affected by environmental considerations, taxation, government regulation (including the increased cost of compliance), inflation, increases in interest rates, price and supply fluctuations, increases in the cost of raw materials and other operating costs, technological advances, and competition from new market entrants. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Concentration Risk. A downturn in the water-related resources sector would impact the Fund more than a fund that does not concentrate in this industry. By focusing on a specific sector or industry, the Fund may be more volatile than a typical mutual fund. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Management Risk. Individual investments of the Fund may not perform as expected, and the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio management practices may not achieve the desired result. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stock Market Risk. The market prices of stocks held by the Fund may fall. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Common Stock Risk. Although common stocks have a history of long-term growth in value, their prices fluctuate based on changes in a company&amp;#8217;s financial condition, on overall market and economic conditions, and on investors&amp;#8217; perception of a company&amp;#8217;s well-being. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign Securities Risk. Investing in foreign securities involves additional risks relating to political, social, and economic developments abroad. Other risks result from differences between regulations that apply to U.S. and foreign issuers and markets, and the potential for foreign markets to be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. markets. Foreign securities include ADRs and GDRs. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unsponsored ADRs involve additional risks because U.S. reporting requirements do not apply and the issuing bank will recover shareholder distribution costs from movement of share prices and payment of dividends. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign Currency Risk. Securities that trade or are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be adversely affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. When the U.S. dollar strengthens relative to a foreign currency, the U.S. dollar value of an investment denominated in that currency will typically fall. GDRs can involve direct currency risk since, unlike ADRs, they may not be U.S. dollar-denominated. ADRs indirectly bear currency risk because they represent an interest in securities that are not denominated in U.S. dollars. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign Currency Transactions Risk. Transactions in foreign currency in connection with the purchase and sale of investments in foreign markets may result in foreign currency exposure and the potential for losses due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. These losses may occur without regard to the quality or performance of the investment itself. Foreign currency transactions may also prevent the Fund from realizing profits on favorable movements in exchange rates. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Emerging Markets Risk. The risks of investing in emerging market securities are greater than those of investing in securities of developed foreign countries. These risks include volatile currency exchange rates, periods of high inflation, increased risk of default, greater social, economic and political uncertainty and instability, less governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets, weaker auditing and financial reporting standards, lack of liquidity in the markets, and the significantly smaller market capitalizations of emerging market issuers. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Market Capitalization Risks. Large-cap companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges such as changes in technology, and also may not be able to attain the high growth rate of successful smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. Prices of small-cap and mid-cap stocks can be more volatile than those of larger, more established companies. Small-cap and mid-cap companies are more likely to have more limited product lines, fewer capital resources and less depth of management than larger companies. Prices of micro-cap securities are generally even more volatile and their markets are even less liquid relative to small-cap, mid-cap and large-cap securities.</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>
