The Pacific Network for Environmental Assessment (PNEA) was created to support government officials from Pacific Island countries and territories who work with environmental impact assessment (EIA) and strategic environmental assessment (SEA).
The role of the PNEA portal has also grown since the pandemic with the global border restrictions practitioners are no longer able to attend face-to-face trainings or conferences and have become reliant on virtual support. The PNEA has acted as hub for sharing of information, providing capacity building support to regional practitioners and hosting training materials. The purpose of this webinar hosted by SPREP’s Environmental Monitoring and Governance programme was to inform existing and potential PNEA members on “how they can make the best use of the online portal” through a virtual Talanoa to discuss a shared and collaborative vision for the future of the portal, specifically with regards to supporting EIA and SEA practitioners from the region.
