The INECE Executive Planning Committee

Executive Planning Committee: The Executive Planning Committee, as the governing body of INECE, defines INECE's cooperative efforts and makes decisions to realize the INECE mission. The Executive Planning Committee (EPC) is composed of no more than 30 persons with balanced representation among regions of the world composed of primarily government/public officials as well as representatives from nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and international organizations including the United Nations Environment Program and the World Bank. The Executive Planning Committee agrees upon the goals, activities, and multi-year work program of the INECE partnership, reviews and approves of work products produced under the auspices of the partnership, and catalyzes and facilitates enforcement and institution building by countries and cooperation among related organizations.

The current Co-chairs of the Executive Planning Committee are:

  • Mr. Antonio Benjamin, Justice, Brazilian Superior Court of Justice, Sao Paulo, Brazil.

  • Ms. Catherine McCabe, Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance, US Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, DC, USA.
