CBE & EAPASA MOU Joint Statement

EAPASA and CBE Sign MoU to Address Common Challenges in the Built Environment

The Environmental Assessment Practitioners Association of South Africa (EAPASA) and the Council for the Built Environment (CBE) signed a joint Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on 12 November 2021 in Pretoria committing to work together on issues of transformation, skills development, research, and promoting and protecting public interests in the built environment.

The purpose of the MoU is to provide a framework for collaboration and good working relations between the two parties, with a long-term view to enact the relationship within the CBE Act. The organisations agree to establish and maintain collaborative relations to enhance the image of the Built Environment – to promote good standards; and to promote the usage of professionally registered persons, research support and protecting the interest of the public in the built and natural environment.

The collaboration demonstrates the need to establish partnerships between various stakeholders with common objectives to actively engage and explore possible and innovative solutions to address challenges faced in the Built Environment, especially from a planning, development and environmental perspective.
