ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

A publication project is always a challenging undertaking; more so when it is an international effort, as this one is. UNEP-IETC is fortunate to have had the Development Academy of the Philippines as its enthusiastic partner, eagerly and efficiently taking on the tasks of coordinating, consulting and communicating with the writers/experts in the preparation of the technical papers, developing the training modules, editing and revising the drafts and seeing things through to the final publication. For these, we would like to express our appreciation to the DAP Project team.

We are doubly grateful to the various writers who unhesitatingly contributed technical papers to supplement their on-site presentations at the March-April 1999 International Training on Environmental Management (ITEM). No doubt they share with us the same keen desire to reach out to an audience much larger than a single training event can reach, and see the publication as an opportunity for achieving this. Our esteem and gratitude thus goes to these individuals as resource persons: Mr. Johan Nel, Potschefstroom University, Johannesburg; Dr. Marly Cardenas, EIA Specialist and former Director of the Environmental Management Bureau of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources in the Philippines; Mr. Nathaniel von Einsedel, Regional Coordinator in UNCHS Urban Management Programme for Asia-Pacific; and to Mr. Toru Tamura, UNEP-IETC. UNEP-IETC also wishes to thank its sister agency, the United Nations Centre for Human Settlements (UNCHS), in particular, the Sustainable Cities Programme (SCP) for generously providing the material upon which the Eco-Profiling write-up was based.

Finally, we look back on the ITEM which started it all and from which the idea of the publication emerged. We acknowledge the special contributions of the ITEM participants who have provided us with some guideposts to the production of what we hope is a useful, and user-friendly publication.
