The House of Representatives
Committee on Environment and other relevant stakeholders on the Nigerian
environment have moved to map strategies out on a collaborative approach for
managing the environment.
It is against this backdrop that the House Committee on Environment is organising a National Conference on the Environment with the theme:
‘Managing our Environment for a Sustainable and Secure Future,’ with
Tandice -B Solutions Limited as consultant for the conference.
The conference, according to the organisers, stemmed from the fact that
“while sovereign laws, international treaties and conventions
acknowledge the fundamental right of the individual to live in a healthy
environment, environmental protection and conservation continues to be a
reoccurring challenge especially for developing economies like
Nigeria.”
The conference, which will take place next week in Abuja, will bring
together all public and private sector organisations involved in
environmental activity in Nigeria to deliberate and agree on a common
agenda for environmental sustainability.
