The PAANEEAC programme: bringing EIA professionals together

Abstract

__Abstract__ National EIA systems include many actors: EIA agencies, project proponents, sectoral authorities, environmental and social NGOs, consultants, academics, lawyers, politicians and even journalists. Their views and actions largely determine whether EIA systems are successfully strengthened. The PAANEEAC programme assisted national associations of EIA professionals in Central Africa to bring all these actors together, to become platforms for exchange, and to undertake joint action to improve the system. The programme was considered successful by the participants. They experience these platforms as beneficial and have continued to keep them in operation after the programme came to an end. This article describes some of the success factors and the importance of the EIA associations within an EIA system.
