The Secretariat for Environmental Assessment in Central Africa (SEACA) announces an international seminar on «Environmental Impact  and Sustainable Land Management in Central Africa», which will be kindly hosted by the Association for Environmental Impact Assessment of Burundi (ABEIE). The Seminar will be held from November 24th to 25th, 2011. There will be plenary sessions, in groups, and also group work on specific themes. A synthesis of the seminar will be made at the end of the seminar to capitalize discussion outcomes and explore possible areas of collaboration between stakeholders in the seminar.
