SADC – SOUTHERN AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT
COMMUNITY
The Southern African Development Community consists of the following 14 countries:
SADC was established in April 1980 by Governments of the nine Southern African countries
of Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
The formation of SADC was the culmination of a long process of consultations by the leaders of
Southern Africa. Towards the end of the 1970's, it became clear to the leaders of the region
that just having a national flag and a national anthem would not meet the needs of the people
for improved living standards.
This part of the SAIEA Calabash Website contains links to SADC-specific EIA and public
participation resources and information. If you do not find what you need, remember to also
look under the International, Africa or country categories.
If you have any additional information and resources to contribute to this part of the Website,

Public Participation Guidelines
Most public participation guidelines are not necessarily SADC-specific, or country-specific for that matter.
Much of the available resources and information were generated internationally. However,
most international resources are universally applicable or at least contain good
guidelines or principles to go by. Therefore, if you do not find what you need
under this part of the Website, remember to also look under the International,
Africa or country categories.
Also, if you have materials to contribute, please contact us at the Calabash Website.

EIA GUIDELINES AND APPLICABLE LAWS
Environmental Impact Assessments are conducted all over the world to identify the potential negative and positive
impacts of a proposed project, and to recommend mitigation measures to avoid or
reduce potential negative impacts and enhance positive impacts. Almost every
country has its own EIA guidelines and laws or regulations. There are also many
generic EIA guidelines available internationally so remember to look under the
International, Africa or country categories.

- The Legal and Regulatory Framework for
Environmental Impact Assessments. A Study of Selected Countries in Sub-Saharan Africa
Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA), a procedure for
evaluating the impact of proposed activities on the environment, is a growing
reality in Africa and in 24 Sub-Saharan African countries, EIA is a matter of
law.
The Legal and Regulatory Framework for Environmental Impact Assessments, which is part of the Law,
Justice, and Development series, examines the various aspects of EIA legislation
in these countries. This book is based on extensive and in-depth analysis of the
relevant EIA legislation. It focuses on and considers specific aspects of the
EIA system, including: the definition of EIA in Sub-Saharan Africa laws; the
prescribed activities, public participation, and consultation; the review
process and the quality of EIA reports; monitoring and enforcement;
compatibility with international norms; and transboundary issues. This book
provides a special emphasis on the role and degree of public participation for
the further development of law and policy in relation to environmental impact
assessments in Sub-Saharan Africa.

- An Assessment of Environmental Policy
Formulation and Implementation Processes in Southern Africa: Discussion Paper
based on a Pilot Study of the Zambian Wetlands Strategy and Action Plan.
This discussion paper was conducted under the IUCN
Regional Networking and Capacity Building Project (NETCAB). It responds to
NETCAB’s objective “to enhance capacity of Southern Africa’s Government
Institutions and NGOs/CBOs to address regional environmental policy and natural
resources management issues more effectively”. In order to address these
concerns IUCN commissioned a series of studies to assess the policy formulation
and implementation process in Southern Africa, initially in three countries,
Zimbabwe, Zambia and South Africa. The studies were later expanded to cover
Botswana, Malawi and Mozambique.
