The Environment Institute of Australia and New Zealand is the professional association for environmental practitioners with an Australia and New Zealand-wide membership in the public and private sectors. Originally formed in 1987, as the Environment Institute of Australia (EIA) it was reconstituted in 2002 to incorporate a New Zealand Chapter and thus became the EIANZ. The Institute's main objectives are to promote environmental knowledge and to advance ethical and competent practice while facilitating interaction amongst environmental professionals. The Institute is genuinely multi-disciplinary, formed specifically for those who work in any of the numerous aspects of environment such as management, planning, education, law, industrial operations, research and audit.Through our local presence in every State, Territory and New Zealand and with an (inter)national Council, we offer professional networking, conferences, local forums, publications and professional development services.
