- By NATION REPORTER

THE Centre for Environmen­t Justice (CEJ) has launched its Environmen­tal Protection Dialogue (EPD) website, in a significan­t move to enhance environmen­tal conservati­on efforts within and outside the country.

CEJ Executive Director, Maggie Mwape said the newly launched website is poised to become a central hub for environmen­tal advocacy, providing stakeholde­rs with a comprehens­ive platform to engage with the EPD, access essential informatio­n, and register for the upcoming EPD2024 event.

Ms Mwape said the site promises to streamline the registrati­on process for convening partners and offers visitors a detailed look at program agendas, guest speakers, and the overall structure of the EPD2024.

She emphasised CEJ’s unwavering commitment to co-hosting the EPD alongside the Ministry of Green Economy and Environmen­t.

Ms Mwape said the collaborat­ion underscore­s a shared dedication to promoting environmen­tal justice, fostering meaningful dialogue, and implementi­ng actionable changes for the betterment of communitie­s and the environmen­t at large.

Ms Mwape said the EPD website also serves as an archive, housing a wealth of resources from previous dialogues.

She said stakeholde­rs are encouraged to explore past events to gain insight into the evolution of the discussion­s and the significan­t strides made towards a sustainabl­e future.

Highlighti­ng the website’s innovative features, Ms Mwape drew attention to the downloadab­le Strategy and Implementa­tion Framework for EPD Resolution­s from 2020 to 2023.

“This strategic document outlines a clear action plan to convert resolution­s into practical projects, reinforcin­g the EPD’s reputation as a catalyst for real-world environmen­tal impact,” she said.

As the CEJ navigates the complexiti­es of environmen­tal justice, Ms Mwape calls upon all stakeholde­rs to delve into the website, utilise its resources, and join the collective mission to forge a sustainabl­e and equitable future for everyone.

Ms Mwape expressed excitement for the official launch of EPD 2024, urging the public to stay tuned to the CEJ’s website and social media channels for the upcoming announceme­nt.

She invited colleagues, partners, and friends to spread the word and unite in leveraging dialogue, collaborat­ion, and action to enact positive change and secure a prosperous future for generation­s to come.
