1. Environmental Screening A Requirement for All CIDA Financed Projects

2. EA Principles at CIDA  Projects outside Canada financially supported by the government of Canada are subject to the CEAA.  Environmental assessment should start as early as possible in the decision- making process.  CIDA exercises flexibility in assessing projects in foreign jurisdictions and in varying circumstances.

3. EA Principles at CIDA (cont.)  Assessments outside Canada are conducted with respect for foreign sovereignty, international law, and international agreements and arrangements to which Canada is party.  If the environmental procedures of foreign states and international or multilateral institutions meet the requirement of CIDA, they can be used instead of CEAA guidelines, only if they meet the basic goals and objectives of the CEAA.

4. EA Principles at CIDA (cont.)  CIDA encourages other countries to develop, improve, and implement their domestic capacity for environmental assessment. Procedures for public participation respect foreign sovereignty and local conditions.  Records of environmental assessments for CIDA-supported projects in countries outside of Canada are made available to the public.
