This video describes the work of SPREP’s EMG division in helping partner countries compile and analyse current environmental data. Partners can use the accurate, good-quality data to assess what environmental targets are on track, as well as areas in need of further policies and programs. Some of the key processes EMG uses to document the findings are the State of Environment Report and National Environment Management Strategies.
