This component of the programme designs tools and approaches to strengthen pollution regulation and environment impact assessments across the global South. As part of this, CSE recommends environment assessment approaches that are tailored to high impact/visibility sectors, and then helps build capacities of officials/regulators in the application of these approaches. In Tanzania, CSE has provided a crucial support in formulating new regulations to the National Environmental Management Council (NEMC), the nodal agency in Tanzania, for conducting environmental impact assessments, compliance and enforcement. The Government of Tanzania has notified the regulations on August 31, 2018.
