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
The Chancellor’s Spring Budget was announced earlier this afternoon, which included a raft of new environmental commitments. In this short blog, IEMA’s Head of Policy, Ben Goodwin, looks at what was and wasn’t announced on energy.
Greenhouse Gas Protocol is surveying stakeholders on the need for updates or additional guidance related to GHG Protocol’s reporting standards. IEMA members attended a workshop during which this was debated and IEMA has submitted the findings to GHG Protocol. In this blog, Chloë Fiddy, IEMA’s Policy and Engagement lead on climate change and energy matters, reports on the key issues that IEMA members raised.
Over the last few months, the government has been consulting with stakeholders on plans to update the National Planning and Policy Framework (NPPF) in England. The insights of IEMA members on this consultation have been captured as part of the response made by the Environmental Policy Forum (EPF). In this blog, Ben Goodwin, IEMA’s Head of Policy, reflects on the key recommendations put forward by the EPF.
IEMA is delighted to announce that our membership has grown to more than 20,000 professionals working in environment and sustainability roles growing by 30% since 2020, becoming one of the largest membership organisations within the sector.
