Capacity Building for Biodiversity Conservation and Sustainable Utilization in
ASEAN Region Training Course - Singapore (24 - 28 November 2003)
In furtherance of its MOU with the Asian Pacific Centre for Environmental Law (APCEL) and the Law Faculty of the National University of Singapore, Professor Michael Jeffery assisted in the delivery of a training programme offered to a select group of invitees from a number of developing countries in the ASEAN region. The training programme was organised by APCEL, MU-CEL and the National University of Singapore and was originally scheduled for April 2003 but had to be postponed due to the SARS epidemic.
This capacity building programme for biodiversity conservation and sustainable utilisation in the ASEAN region through skill development in legal and regulatory mechanisms has received funding from the ASEAN Region Centre for Biodiversity (ARCBC). The four trainers including, Professor Jeffery, have donated their time to support this important capacity building initiative.
