Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is an important tool to inform decision - makers, regulators and stakeholders, about the possible environmental, social and economic costs of the proposed project. To be effective, it requires the active involvement of all concerned stakeholders.

There is a genuine need to develop the capacity of the state-level regulators and state level expert appraisal Committee (SEAC) to screen and scope the EIA process, to conduct transparent public consultations and to evaluate the EIA reports, especially after the new EIA notification. At the same time, there is a need among CBO, NGOs, academicians, and environment managers to review and interpret EIA report, as they are technical in nature.

    Dear raja, such programmes are specifically designed for a mixed audience, so that the various stakeholders from industry, NGOs, students, regulators, partipicants from south asian countries, can come up at one forum and learn, about EIA as a process, and how it is practiced efficiently.
