The main objective of the training resource manual (TRM) is to enable trainers, particularly, in developing countries and ClTs to develop and produce site and situation specific training courses for the different target groups who are concerned with environmental impact assessment (EIA). The use of the TRM will contribute directly to the building of local capacity to develop EIA procedures and legislation, to conduct EIA, administer, monitor and evaluate the implementation of EIA.--Publisher's description.
