We are the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment (IEMA).
We are the global professional body for over 20,000 individuals and 300 organisations working, studying or interested in the environment and sustainability.
We are the professional organisation at the centre of the sustainability agenda, connecting business and individuals across industries, sectors and borders.
We also help and support public and private sector organisations, governments and regulators to do the right thing when it comes to environment and sustainability related initiatives, challenges and opportunities. We work to influence public policy on environment and sustainability matters. We do this by drawing on the insights and experience of our members to ensure that what happens in practice influences the development of government policy, legislation, regulations and standards.

Highlights from IEMA

IEMA is launching a new webinar series looking at the challenges and opportunities associated with developing circular renewables. This follows the Institute’s call for the UK to develop a circular renewables strategy. In this short blog, IEMA’s Adam Batchelor and Chloe Fiddy, look at the pressing need to embed circular thinking into the renewables sector and what the new webinar series will cover.

IEMA is partnering with Content With Purpose (CWP) to produce a digital series exploring the strides that organisations across industries are taking to implement and execute sustainability strategies, prioritise ESG, harness education and green skills, and turn words into action to protect our planet.

IEMA’s Policy and Engagement Lead for Climate Change and Energy, Chloë Fiddy, introduces IEMA’s new guidance on transition planning written specifically for SMEs. This guide was crafted through a process of engagement with SMEs to identify their most significant obstacles and barriers. It distils valuable insights and scalable advice from case studies of organisations, both large and small, from around the globe.

Volume 17 of the IEMA Impact Assessment Journal: Habitats Regulations Assessment is out now. The following guest blog has been written by the guest editor, Ursula Stevenson.
