Course Overview

Energy projects—from oil and gas to renewables—have significant environmental and social impacts. This Environmental Impact Assessment in Energy Projects Training Course provides participants with the knowledge and practical skills to evaluate, mitigate, and manage project impacts in compliance with international standards.

Participants will learn how to design and conduct EIAs, integrate stakeholder engagement, and address environmental risks such as biodiversity loss, emissions, and water management.
