7 December 2015

The NCEA visited Mozambique and attended two meetings. The first was the public participation meeting on the proposed new EIA decree, organized by the Ministry for Land, Environment and Rural Development (MITADER). The NCEA’s participation was on request of the Netherlands Embassy in Mozambique and was used to give feedback on the draft decree. The second meeting was the first session of the Commission for Guidance and Supervision (CAS) for the lower Zambezi Valley Special Spatial Plan (PEOT). The NCEA acts as coach of the planning and SEA process, and was asked to attend this meeting by the joint SEA management team of the Zambezi Valley Development Authority (ADvZ) and MITADER.
