From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management (IEEM) is the professional body which represents and supports ecologists and environmental managers, mainly in the United Kingdom but increasingly in Ireland and Europe, and the rest of the world.
Established in 1991, IEEM has around 3000 members drawn from local authorities, government agencies, industry, environmental consultancy, teaching/research, and NGOs.
[edit] Activities of IEEM
IEEM provides a variety of services to develop the competency and standards of professional ecologists and environmental managers and also promote ecology and environmental management as a profession.
