Governance


The Caspian Environment Programme (CEP) is governed by a Steering Committee composed of representatives, typically at the Ministerial or Deputy-Ministerial level, from each of the five Caspian littoral states. In addition, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the World Bank (WB), The European Union/Technical Assistance to the Commonwealth of Independent States (EU/Tacis), and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) are members of the Steering Committee. The Steering Committee is the Governing and Policy-Making body of the CEP.

The Steering Committee meets at least once a year in its ordinary meetings, but may hold additional meetings at the request of the Steering Committee Chairman. Representatives of the private sector, public and non-governmental organizations are often invited to participate as observers.

The Steering Committee Chairman, Mr. Mohammad Saeid Hosseini , is the I. R. Iran NFP and the Director of the Marine Environment Bureau of the Department of the Environment . He serves from November 2003 thorough November 2004 .


His contact information is:

NFP: Mr. Hosseini Emami

Parvin@neda.net

 

The Steering Committee decides on policy and governance questions, reviews Work Plans for the CEP and discusses new projects and their relationship with the CEP. A new project that focuses on the Caspian Sea may decide to either become a part of the CEP, or just to liaise closely with the CEP through the Programme Coordination Unit. Regardless of the definition, all environmental Projects operating within the Caspian region are encouraged to liaise closely with the Programme Coordination Unit.
