2 Background Environmental conditions are deteriorating in the Asia-Pacific region experiencing rapid population and economic growth. To solve such problems, the world needs a tangible path toward sustainable development and clearer plan for implementation. The launch of the Asia-Pacific Environmental Innovation Strategy Project (APEIS) was endorsed with appreciation at ECO ASIA 2001.

3 Objectives and Key Concepts Objectives –To develop scientific knowledge-based tools and innovative strategy options to promote informed decision-making –To promote regional cooperation and capacity building –To propose a model of a regional initiative to substantiate and realize the Plan of Implementation for the WSSD Key Concepts –Ensure the highest possible level of participation and collaboration –Create a framework in which scientific activities and policy makers interact synergistically and constructively –Fully incorporate and utilize resources of existing regional activities –Consider and reflect specific needs and diversified circumstances

4 Why is this Project “innovative”? Objects and Processes –development of scientific knowledge-based tools and strategy options for policy-makers as a regional common asset, through dynamic interaction between scientific activities and policy makers Outcomes –proposal of innovative policy instruments and environmental strategy options Technical elements –employment of innovative methodologies such as satellite- and ground-based integrated monitoring and environment-economy integrated models

5 International Scientific Activities Framework of APEIS WSSD Propose Asia-Pacific model ECO ASIA Ministerial Meeting ECO ASIA Panel Policy Guidance Scientific database and options Millennium Ecosystem Assessment and Other international projects Create linkages and cooperative structures International organizations (ADB, UNEP, UNU) APN Joint project collaboration Research on innovative and strategic policy options Integrated Environmental Monitoring Integrated Environmental Assessment Sub-projects

6 Integrated Environmental Monitoring (IEM) Main Components –Establishment of a MODIS data network (receiving stations and analytical systems) covering the Asia- Pacific region –Development of a ground-truth observation network to validate satellite data –Integrated monitoring of environmental disasters –Integrated monitoring of environmental indices and degradation –Study of land-atmosphere processes and ecological functions at the watershed scale, and modeling of water resources and agricultural productivity

7 Integrated Environmental Assessments (IEA) Main Components –Development of a set of integrated assessment models based on the AIM project –Development of indicators and a strategic database comprised of the fundamental database, index base, model base and strategy option base –Assessment of the current conditions and possible future changes of the environment and economy, and the quantitative effects and implications of proposed innovative strategy options

8 Research on Innovative and Strategic Policy Options (RISPO) Main Components –Conduction of field-based case studies in selected countries –Development of policy inventories (good practices inventory and innovative instruments inventory) based on case studies and existing projects –Proposal of strategic policy options based on the analysis of practices and instruments compiled in the policy inventories –Implementation of pilot projects on selected issues and site to examine the effects, feasibility and applicability of the strategic policy options

9 Cooperation with Related Projects Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) –Regional MA in western China is being implemented as a joint activity of APEIS and the MA. –Both projects can cooperate in exchanging data and methodologies. National Performance Assessment and Subregional Strategic Environment Framework in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) –Planned by the ADB, UNEP, NIES and IGES –Both projects are being designed and will be implemented with close collaboration APN –Strong partner for APEIS –Research Networking and capacity building

10 Call for Participation Ministry of the Environment, Japan (MOEJ) is proposing APEIS as a Type 2 Partnership/Initiative to the WSSD. Many research institutes and international organizations are already participating in APEIS. MOEJ is calling for wider participation of interested bodies, in particular, ministries and agencies in the Asia- Pacific region. Please contact to MOEJ as soon as possible but no later than 9 August.
