Course description
Many tools are available to governments, industry and citizens to help them make and implement good environmental management decisions. These include, for example, EIA, environmental risk management, environmental auditing and corporate reporting. This course focuses on the essential techniques and methods and outlines their application to resolving problems of sustainable development. The course involves an investigation of how these tools fit within legislative and institutional frameworks, and trends in the use of particular tools at project, local, regional, national and international scales.
