IEMA's Specialist Interest Groups

We are piloting three SIGs initially:

• Environmental Management Systems and Environmental Auditing
• Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility (Under development)
• Environmental Impact Assessment & Strategic Environmental Assessment (Under development)

The discussion fora will enable members to:

• Exchange news, views, information, knowledge and experience;
• Raise the profile of the Institute by sharing and developing best practice;
• Support and encourage members in their professional activities;
• Provide an opportunity for members to meet and network;
• Contribute to debate and respond to consultations from corporate, institutional and government bodies.

There is a range of potential activities that SIGs might undertake. These include:

• Hold events (meetings, regional events, conferences);
• Input into IEMA programmes;
• Supply information and threads for SIG discussion forum;
• Produce Position Papers;
• Prepare and assist in the production of good practice guidelines and other documents;
• Develop periodical newsletters; and
• Respond to consultations of interest to the SIG.

Each IEMA member receives one free registration as part of their annual membership fee. IEMA members can choose which and how may of the groups they would like to join.
