Civil Society Alliance for Enhanced Implementation of Environmental Impact Assessments in Key Biodiversity Areas of the Albertine Rift Region - Phase II

Promote the use of environmental impact assessments (EIAs) to safeguard sensitive areas in Rwanda, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo provinces of North Kivu and South Kivu. Train as many as 40 local NGOs and community organizations in EIA processes, creating a network of EIA practitioners that can become engaged in these processes more broadly in the region, promulgating better EIA policy, standards and guidelines.
