Africa environment outlook 2 : our environment, our wealth
The Africa Environment Outlook (AEO) reporting
process was initiated in 2000 by the African Ministerial
Conference on the Environment (AMCEN). The first
report, AEO-1, was launched during AMCEN’s 9th
session in Kampala in July 2002, where it was
acknowledged as a flagship publication. This report has
continued to inspire dialogue in the region and has been
used as the primary background document in the
preparation of the NEPAD Environment Action Plan
(NEPAD-EAP) - showing strong links between
environmental assessment and policy making.
