The Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment (IEMA) has included the IRI in its recent webinars on environmental management in Iran.

With more than 15,000 members in over 100 countries, IEMA is the world’s largest membership organization for environment and sustainability professionals.

Martin Baxter, Chief Policy Advisor of IEMA, said, “Today we held our first webinar for local government officials in Tehran. In addition to covering standards such as ISO 14001 and EMAS, we introduced the IRI as a unique approach to implementing CSR from a cultural perspective.”

Baxter: “IEMA, which is itself a global alliance of professionals establishing a sustainable economy, recognizes both the importance and the potential of collaboration in addressing global challenges. Also, we embrace the approach of the IRI which builds on local principles and values as a vital component for achieving effective dialogue and shared progress.”

IEMA’s MENA Network, ‘made for and made of environment and sustainability professionals living and working in the Middle East and North Africa’, is currently its fastest growing local network.
