UN is considering Ecoclub’s complaint relating the shortcomings of Ukrainian legislation on environmental impact assessment

Ecoclub has filed a complaint to the Aarhus Convention. The state procedures for strategic environmental assessment (SEA) and environmental impact assessment (EIA) in Ukraine are flawed and do not ensure proper public participation. These problems result in the construction of hazardous to human health and the environment facilities and encourage cooperation with unscrupulous investors.
