Gateway to African Environmental Law & Policy

The wealth of information available on the World Wide Web is often scattered and difficult to find.  The Gateway is an attempt to facilitate internet searches by arranging links to Web sites related to African Environmental Law and Policy by country, or environmental issue.  There are a number of useful sites which span geopolitical boundaries, and are not issue specific.  We have grouped these resources as being either African or Global in origin.

Country-Specific Resources Each country page links to Web sites relevant to that particular nation.  Links are presented by the nature of information (i.e. Constitution, Law, Government, NGO, etc.).  Also included are links to regional and international web sites with resources on numerous African countries.

Algeria Congo Guinea Morocco Tanzania
Angola Cote d'Ivoire Guinea-Bissau Mozambique Togo

Botswana Djibouti Lesotho Nigeria Uganda
Burkina Faso Egypt Liberia Rwanda Zambia
Burundi Equatorial Guinea Libya Senegal Zimbabwe
